The Biden administration is planning to spend hundreds of millions of
dollars to install solar power in Puerto Rico on thousands of homes — an
ambitious effort to improve the territory’s fragile power grid. But the
program is facing political pushback from Republican lawmakers and some
practical concerns from Puerto Rican residents. POLITICO’s Gloria
Gonzalez breaks down the skepticism and how the administration is
defending its solar program. Plus, Energy Secretary Jennifer Granholm
firmly said there is no "ban" in place on liquefied natural gas in the
face of bipartisan concerns.
