Cancellation of Solar Grant Programme: The US EPA has terminated a $7bn solar energy grant programme aimed at low-income communities, following the enactment of the One Big Beautiful Bill Act by President Trump, which removed funding for renewable energy initiatives.
Impact on Non-Profit Organizations: Groundswell, a non-profit organization, expressed disappointment over the cancellation as it was set to use a $156m grant to help reduce electricity costs for over 17,000 households in rural areas, highlighting concerns about energy affordability.
