Texas and California find common ground on solar power
Original: If Texas and California can agree on solar power, why can't US President Donald Trump? https:// cleantechnica.com/2026/1
Solar power is reducing electricity costs in both Texas and California, two states that rarely align on energy policy. The development is drawing attention to the widening gap between state-level market realities and the Trump administration's stance on solar energy. Commenters are asking why, if the nation's two largest states can agree solar pays off, the president cannot. The debate touches on federal energy policy versus economic self-interest.
Why now: The contrast between bipartisan state-level adoption of solar and the administration's opposition to it is fueling renewed debate over US federal energy policy.
