The incoming solar clash between Trump and China
Donald Trump has yet to return to the White House but his plans for targeting President Biden’s climate agenda may already be affecting industry. Trina, one of China’s largest solar panel manufacturers, just sold its new Texas factory to Georgia-based battery maker Freyr. Trina said Trump’s victory had “nothing to do” with the sale, but the company was poised to receive nearly two billion in tax credits under the Inflation Reduction Act. POLITICO’s Benjamin Storrow and Kelsey Tamborrino explain the significance of this move and what may happen with the solar industry under the next Trump administration. Plus, President-elect Trump has selected former Rep. Lee Zeldin for EPA administrator, a pick that bucked expectations for the return of Trump’s former EPA head Andrew Wheeler.

But the return to nuclear power is not just a U.S. phenomenon. In Italy, a new generation of climate conscious young people is shaking up the debate — spurred in part by an unlikely social media influencer. On POLITICO Energy, climate reporter Federica Di Sario joins POLITICO Tech host Steven Overly to introduce the Atomic Advocate.
