Read MoreUS Presidential Debate: Hillary Advocates for Solar, Trump Criticizes Clean Energy Support
Hillary wants to put 500,000,000 solar panels in place during her presidency meanwhile Trump wants to get rid of the Clean Power Plan because he believes that climate change isn’t a threat and regulations are hurting the American economy. That was the takeaway for clean energy supporters who watched last night’s debate between U.S. Presidential hopefuls Hillary Clinton (D) and Donald Trump (R).
To anyone who watched the debate, it was apparent that should she be elected, Clinton will support and work to continue similar clean energy initiatives that have been put forth by Obama. Trump, on the other hand, will work to undo them.
Clinton views clean energy as a job-boosting economic opportunity for the U.S.: “We can deploy a half a billion more solar panels. We can have enough clean energy to power every home. We can build a new modern electric grid. That’s a lot of jobs; that’s a lot of new economic activity,” she said.
Trump said clean energy incentives are “a disaster” reminding viewers of the failed solar company Solyndra that received more than $500 million in aid from the U.S. government before filing for bankruptcy.
“She talks about solar panels,” he said, adding “We invested in a solar company, our country. That was a disaster. They lost plenty of money on that one.”
