Lo ha dicho la vicepresidenta tercera del Gobierno y ministra para la Transición Ecológica y el Reto Demográfico, Sara Aagesen, en el Foro Solar, el gran evento anual del sector fotovoltaico nacional, que ha abierto sus puertas hoy en Madrid. La ministra se refería así a las declaraciones hechas hace unas semanas por Alberto Nadal, vicesecretario de Economía y Desarrollo Sostenible del Partido Popular y gran artífice, a mediados de la década pasada, del polémico impuesto al Sol.
