Money, money, money. Imagine if solar spent more than the remaining energy sector on political wrangling. A phenomenon that is likely not to happen anytime in the near future and quote honestly, is unnecessary. The people are speaking up about it. Whether it is someone from the Tea Party in Georgia or Michigan, an environmentalist in Vermont or simply a capitalist in Arizona. The freedom to choose the enterprise to do business with is part of the debate. So the solar companies have no problem staying out of dark money elections in States like Arizona or fight the ITC battle with grassroots. The people have and continue to speak on the industry’s behalf.
