State Solar PolicySolar Industry Perspective on the "No More Solyndras Act"
H.R. 6213, the No More Solyndras Act, was passed by the U.S. House of Representatives in September 2012. If enacted, this bill would sunset DOE’s Loan Guarantee Program {link to http://www.seia.org/policy/finance-tax/loan-guarantee-program} and prevent the issuance of new loan guarantees for renewable energy projects. Despite the headlines, the solar industry is a bright spot in terms of loan guarantees, with eleven utility-scale solar projects currently under construction or operational.
