Trump Administration Hurts U.S. Solar And Wind Industry With Expected Policy Changes

Douglas McIntyre, Editor-in-Chief at Climate Crisis 24/7, warns that the U.S. solar industry is at risk due to potential cuts to homeowner tax credits under the new administration. If these incentives are removed, solar panel adoption could decline sharply, making renewable energy less accessible. The administration has also reduced subsidies and permits for offshore wind turbines, further threatening green energy expansion. If these policy changes continue, both solar and wind power could face significant setbacks in the coming years.
