If he wanted to be true anti-solar, he'd work on killing the ITC (tax credit) that people are using to offset the cost of solar today (though it will fully disappear in ~4 years at the current schedule).
- sandworm101 9y ago>>> killing the ITC (tax credit) Raising taxes isn't a big priority for him atm. Those pro-solar deductions are used by a great may companies.
- Fnoord 9y ago> If he wanted to be true anti-solar [...] No true Scotsman. One doesn't exclude the other. Perhaps this is even next on his list, who knows (lets not give him ideas wink)

- dv_dt 9y agoBefore the final turns of the tax bill, I think the PTC solar credit was on the chopping block in the senate version. I suspect the ITC is temporarily protected by needing some extended regulatory process timeline to kill as early. I'm no tax expert but I recall reading that the PTC is more oriented to commercial solar producers and ITC residential. I suspect the only real hold back of the administration is that it is understaffed to fully attack all of the solar programs effectively.
