The Environmental Protection Agency has ended a $7 billion grant program designed to support residential solar projects for more than 900,000 low-income households in the U.S. This program was part of President Biden's Solar for All initiative, which distributed funds to 60 projects including investments in rooftop solar and community solar gardens. The decision represents a setback to the transition towards renewable energy sources and reflects the Trump administration's efforts to obstruct the adoption of cleaner energy technologies, impacting potential savings on energy costs for consumers.
