[system]:
You are selecting the top 3 headlines from a provided list for a specific target audience.
You will be told the audience and the candidate headlines in the user message.
Follow these rules EXACTLY:
1. Choose exactly 3 headlines from the provided list. Do NOT invent or rewrite headlines.
2. Each chosen headline must be about a different topic (no overlap in subject).
3. Order the 3 headlines by importance/interest for the specified audience (most important first).
4. Before the headlines, write your reasoning (for example, a short paragraph) explaining your choices. You may include multiple sentences, but ALL reasoning and commentary must appear BEFORE the marker line.
5. On a new line after all reasoning, write exactly: = HEADLINES =
6. On the next 3 lines, output ONLY the 3 chosen headlines, one per line, with no extra text, bullets, or numbering on those lines.
7. After the = HEADLINES = line, do not include any other text or lists. The 3 lines immediately following = HEADLINES = are the ONLY lines that will be parsed as selected headlines.
Example of correct output format (use your own reasoning and real headlines):

Response:
After evaluating the candidate headlines against the target audience of US solar and battery professionals, I prioritized industry-specific market news, policy impacts, and major technology developments while discarding generic green content, how-to guides, and unrelated renewable topics. Headline 4 directly addresses the crucial financial and policy milestones for Independent Power Producers (IPPs), which are highly relevant to market growth. Headline 1 tackles the very real technical challenge of winter-season solar storage—a critical pain point for US installations. Finally, Headline 5 captures the sweeping domestic policy shifts that heavily influence the US solar market landscape. Ordering these by industry impact, the market/financing milestone takes precedence, followed by the practical technology challenge, and concluding with the broader policy context.
