"Solar for All Likely Protected From Trump’s Roll Back Of Biden’s IRA"

"The program is set to install solar panels to power nearly a million low-income households over the next five years"

"It may be too late for Donald Trump to follow through on threats to repeal outgoing President Joe Biden’s Inflation Reduction Act — at least that appears to be the case for the $7 billion Solar For All Program.

Officials with the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency say program funds have already been “obligated,” meaning the 60 initiatives are on track to begin implementation early next year. The program is geared at lowering utility bills for more than 900,000 low-income households over the next five years.

Solar for All offers solar power to households through grants, loans or a combination of funding depending on the state. It is aimed at low-income and disadvantaged communities and projected to save the average recipient $400 a year in utility costs."
