But as those incentives begin to phase out, big questions loom about whether the U.S. clean energy industry will stumble or stand strong. POLITICO’s Pavan Acharya breaks down the scramble, the stakes, and whether the industry can sustain its growth. Plus, the European Commission is considering giving fossil fuel companies leeway to avoid penalties under new rules governing the emissions of methane. Pavan Acharya covers clean energy for POLITICO.
