The Environmental Protection Agency is weighing a move to cancel $7 billion in grants awarded under the Biden administration’s “Solar for All” program, prompting concern among low- and moderate‑income households nationwide.
The grants—disbursed in 2024 to about 60 nonprofits, tribes, and state agencies—were intended to help vulnerable communities install solar energy. Sources say the EPA may send termination letters to recipients as early as this week. An EPA spokesperson cited implementation of the newly enacted “One Big Beautiful Bill” in affirming the action aligns with congressional intent. To date, the EPA has not made a final decision. 7/24/2025
