Do you have a source for the smart glass subsidy? I haven't been able to find anything that mentions it.

https://www.prnewswire.com/news-releases/inflation-reduction... - It seems like it just puts it on an equal footing with other solutions.

Unless there's a downside that I'm not aware of, that seems like a reasonable thing to do?

The downside is it is expensive, while much cheaper methods are available.
Yeah I don't see anyone taking advantage of this if they didn't also expect it to work.

"Among the Inflation Reduction Act's little-noticed yet potentially game-changing provisions: a big incentive for "smart glass," which can make buildings significantly more energy efficient."

Thanks!
