The 60 recipients will use the funding to help low- and moderate-income families overcome barriers to rooftop solar, expanding access to some 900,000 people.
The Biden administration chose Earth Day to announce the recipients of $7 billion in funding for a program called Solar for All that aims to expand rooftop and community solar power to an estimated 900,000 households in low- and moderate-income communities.'The Solar for All program is really emblematic of the swing-for-the-fences, big bold climate action the president has championed from day one,' White House Climate Advisor Ali Zaidi said in a press briefing.
Posner said his group will also use Solar for All funding to train local workers to become solar installation experts. There are also provisions for homeowners to address other problems such as outdated electric breaker boxes and aging rooftops that could otherwise prevent them from being able to add solar panels.'It is really smartly written to meet the needs of the communities that can most benefit from clean energy,' Posner said.
