The Department of Energy’s Loan Programs Office (LPO) has made a conditional commitment for a $1.45 billion loan guarantee to Qcells.
The loan guarantee will support the company’s solar supply chain facility in Cartersville, Ga., which is slated to produce ingots, wafers, cells and finished solar panels.
Once fully operational, the facility is expected to produce 3.3 GW of solar panels annually.
Qcells’ other solar factory, opened in 2019, is located one hour north of the facility site in Dalton, Ga.
Projects like the one announced today will benefit from the Section 45 Advanced Manufacturing Production Tax Credit, also known as 45X, created by President Biden’s Inflation Reduction Act.
The loan guarantee would be offered through LPO’s Title 17 Clean Energy Financing Program, which includes financing opportunities for innovative energy and supply chain projects and projects that reinvest in existing energy infrastructure.

Understanding Trump Voters
What we have at left is a continuation of the discussion: who is more disgusting? Trump or his voters?
It’s an open question.

Reflecting Pool Fracas
No one knows the precise content of this “shouting match,” but it’s reasonable to assume that Pirro didn’t want to go down via prosecutorial misconduct, simply to allow Trump to avoid blame for him outrageous decision to have an incompetent crony redo the Reflecting Pool.
In addition, maybe she has some personal integrity. Shocking.
