This week’s episode features Tim McDonnell from Semmafor, who wrote about how Trump's return could freeze clean energy investments by rejecting or clawing back DOE’s $400B Loan Programs Office (LPO) funding.

This week's "Cleantecher of the Week" is Peter Roy, International Consultant for Soluz Honduras. Peter recently took a trip to Honduras to witness the company’s operations in Yoro, where solar energy was brought to a remote, off-grid community that used to rely on wood sap for light.
