The Biden administration on Wednesday announced a $7 billion grant competition for low-income communities to expand residential solar energy.

The competition, called Solar for All, will award up to 60 grants to expand the number of low-income communities primed for solar investment, according to the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA).
