Gross's move comes at a critical time for the U.S.

Gross's move comes at a critical time for the U.S. solar industry as it struggles to meet its financial obligations to its customers. Solar is struggling to meet its obligations to its customers for the last three years, with its solar portfolio now sitting at just over $70 billion. By the end of 2015, the $40 billion solar portfolio had just $12 million left.

If the solar industry were to pull out of the solar business, Gross's new position would be a significant blow to the industry's ability to finance its future investments in the solar sector. In order to keep its portfolio in the $70 billion, he says, "It's going to be very difficult for the industry to come up with an adequate number of people with the time and the financial resources to do that."

Gross also notes that the forecast for the next five years is not optimistic. "We're going to be very, very conservative in thinking about this for the next five years," he said.

"It's certainly going to be a challenge to get the next level of solar deployment," said Bill Phelan, a senior scientist at the U.S. Department of Energy's Office of National Research who has been a senior adviser on the GFS climate model. "The ability to go out and do research on this will be critical. The ability to do that in a timely manner is going to be critical."

For Gross, this new role will be particularly important given the recent reports that warned of another global solar power boom. Gross has published numerous reports on the potential of solar power as a renewable energy technology, as well as a number of articles on the risks of solar power in the United States. He has been involved in several recent solar projects that have been successful, including those of SolarCity, which announced it would invest $200 million of its SolarCity assets in a bid to develop projects that could grow solar power in the United States. These projects are set to go on sale in February.

However, Gross does believe that the future of solar power in the US is being adversely affected by the recent recent reports that suggested that the National Renewable Energy Laboratory, which serves as the primary global government source of clean energy, was about to become the world's largest carbon dioxide emitter. He also believes that solar power could become a "bridge" to clean energy and also "a much more efficient source of power" than coal.

The New York Times reported on Thursday that the National Renewable Energy Laboratory began to take
