The decision follows tariff increases finalized by the Biden administration in September, targeting key Chinese product categories.

    surely they’ll follow up with investments into US-produced solar equipment to boost the economy and bring prices down to competitive levels, right?

    … Right?

      I’m convinced it will be easy to sell solar to the Right once it is marketed as ‘off-grid independent self-sufficient energy’ instead of ‘green energy’.

        That’s how battery backup has been marketed pretty much forever, and not having to rely on a utility company is pretty appealing regardless of political views.
