No. The article is a coded call for subsidies of solar through "improved" financing. Subsidizing a specific activity means the government picks the technology. A carbon tax would bring all the same benefits and would not have the government deciding which technology to favor. For example there is a competing technology called "smaller houses". A carbon tax would promote that and leave the choice in private hands.
