Noting the recent collapse of Silicon Valley Bank (SVB) and the firm’s role in sustainable lending, several industry players have predicted a slow-down in what was predicted to be an extremely active year for solar development. But as updates continue to emerge it’s important to recognize the role of specialty non-commercial bank lenders.
