The retroactive collection of duties on historical solar imports to the US has been temporarily paused pending the outcome of an appeal.
The prospective imposition of "billions of dollars" in unpaid tariffs would prove a significant disruption for the US solar sector, and is one of several key talking points to be discussed at the 12th edition of the Solar & Storage Finance USA Summit on 21-22 October 2025 in New York.
Panellists will discuss the fate of US solar and storage in a post-subsidy world, the evolving economics of standalone BESS and de-risking solar and storage supply chains.
All are encouraged to respond to an anonymous survey on the US solar and storage sector, that will shape discussions at the Summit.
What’s happening across US solar & storage finance:
Doral Renewables secured a PPA for its 430MW Cold Creek solar-plus-storage project in Texas, pairing solar with 340MWh of storage.
Arevon brought 264MW of new solar capacity online in Indiana through a PPA with Meta.
EDF Renewables broke ground on the 150MW Milagro project in New Mexico, with a co-located 75MW/300MWh BESS.
Enlight Renewable Energy closed two tax equity partnerships for its 290MW Roadrunner project in Arizona.
SunStrong Management raised US$900 million via securitisation to refinance a 528MW residential solar portfolio.
California passed key legislation (AB 825, SB 302) aimed at reducing energy prices, moves applauded by SEIA and CEBA.
These developments highlight the resilience of the US renewables market and the growing sophistication of financing strategies driving clean energy growth nationwide.
