Donalds calls solar a 'fad' as Florida utilities expand its use
Original: Donalds calls solar a ‘fad’ as Florida utilities expand its use
Byron Donalds, a Florida congressman, described solar power as a 'fad' at a time when Florida utilities are expanding their use of solar energy. The comment puts him at odds with the direction of the state's energy market, where utilities continue to add large-scale solar capacity. His remarks have drawn attention for clashing with industry investment trends in a major solar-growing state.
Why now: His dismissal of solar contradicts the continued expansion of solar power by Florida utilities, making it a point of contention in energy debates.
