How solar power is winning over Georgia Republicans

President Donald Trump and congressional Republicans have attacked solar power and rolled back key industry tax credits. But now, in conservative Georgia, Republicans are embracing the green technology, exposing a growing divide within the party. POLITICO’s Zack Colman explains why some Georgia Republicans are warming up to solar and what that could say about the future of clean energy for Republicans around the country. Plus, the Energy Department announced recently that it finalized a $1.9 billion loan to help restart a shuttered nuclear power plant in Iowa.
