I recently wrote an article titled “Inflation Reduction Act To Give U.S. Solar Energy Industry A Much Needed Boost.” A few days later, the U.S. Solar Energy Industries Association (SEIA) published a press release that said pretty much the same thing. The title: “U.S. Solar Market Ready for Rebound After Tumultuous First Half of 2022.” […]
