KBRA Releases Research: Residential Solar Loan ABS—Mostly Sunny With Clouds on the Horizon

NEW YORK--(BUSINESS WIRE)--KBRA releases research on the key issues affecting the residential solar loan industry, including the U.S. Department of Commerce investigation into Chinese companies potentially circumventing U.S. tariffs, net metering legislation, and rising energy prices. The report also details the potential implications, in KBRA’s view, that each issue poses on the solar industry. Several of the issues have a direct impact on residential solar loan ABS and will shape the sector over the near and long term. While the focus of the report is the residential solar loan ABS industry, many of the issues also impact the residential solar power purchase agreement (PPA)/lease sector as well as the solar commercial and industrial (C&I) sectors.
