Democrats got a new ally in the war over distributed solar power and
it’s not someone you’d expect: Florida Gov. Ron DeSantis. The rumored
Republican presidential candidate vetoed a GOP bill last week that would
have cut payments to owners of rooftop solar systems. POLITICO’s Debra
Kahn explains why DeSantis made that decision, how solar advocates are
reacting, and what this move could mean for solar panel battles in other
states.
