The wind industry is facing yet another expiration of the production tax credit (PTC) at the end of the year, and this time it likely won't get extended quickly -- if at all. So is the wind industry prepared for a future without the credit?

This week, the Energy Gang will debate the merits of the PTC and whether the industry can thrive without it, and ask whether the wind lobby has screwed up the opportunity to develop policy beyond the tax credit.

We'll also look at the significance of SolarCity's recent effort to securitize rooftop solar projects and examine the impact of this week's local elections on energy issues.

Join the Energy Gang for its first live show at the MDV-SEIA Solar Focus conference in Washington, D.C. on November 12!
