A group of business owners and nonprofit groups sued the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) over ending a $7 billion residential solar program, according to an Oct. 6 lawsuit filed at the Rhode Island District Court.
The Solar for All program was set up by the Biden administration as part of the Inflation Reduction Act (IRA). In April 2024, the program awarded grants to 60 recipients, including tribes, states, and nonprofits, to expand solar energy access to low-income and disadvantaged communities, tackle climate concerns, and reduce energy costs.
