Stem and Arizona Electric Power Cooperative (AEPCO), in partnership with Prometheus Power, have deployed a co-located storage and solar project for Sulphur Springs Valley Electric Co-op, an AEPCO member cooperative.
The project includes a 40 MWh energy storage system and an existing 20 MW PV system that is set to integrate Athena, Stem’s AI-driven software, to operate and monitor the storage system on a unified platform.
This is expected to be the first of three similarly sized deployments that Stem will collaborate on with Prometheus to provide services for AEPCO’s other managing co-ops. The three projects are expected to come online by the end of the year.
“More than 900 electric co-ops across 48 states make up the largest electric utility network in the U.S.,” says John Carrington, CEO of Stem.
“The segment is forecasted to be one of the fastest growing segments of the front-of-the-meter market through the end of this decade and is projected to represent over 20% of all future storage deployments. Stem’s unique combination of AI-driven software, hardware and services is enabling enhanced value and project returns at scale for co-ops and their members. We are excited to bring our proven capabilities and market experience to AEPCO and their members.”

Countries Without God
A couple of months ago, I happened to ask a friend who had emigrated from Sweden if she was religious. “No!” she exclaimed. “Almost no one in Sweden is religious.”
As we see at left, there seems to be a huge correlation between atheism and the national level of happiness. But what causes that?
Are believers unhappy people for some reason? That doesn’t make sense.
Here’s my two-fold theory. Atheists believe:
a) That we only live once, so we try to enjoy it while we can.
And, more importantly,
b) That we need to take care of one another (since there is no God). We’re willing to make sacrifices if that means things like great education, universal healthcare, environmental responsibility, tolerable working conditions, and near-zero poverty.

From the Independent: “Trump Administration to Pay Two More Companies to Walk Away from U.S. Offshore Wind Leases”
From this article in The Independent:
The Trump administration announced two more payouts Monday for energy companies to walk away from U.S. offshore wind projects under development.
Bluepoint Wind and Golden State Wind have agreed to end their offshore wind leases in exchange for reimbursements totaling nearly $900 million. Both companies have decided not to pursue any new offshore wind projects in the United States, the Interior Department announced Monday.
Bluepoint Wind is an offshore wind project in the early stages of development off the coasts of New Jersey and New York, while Golden State Wind is a floating offshore wind project proposed off California’s central coast.
Trump is hellbent on destroying the renewable energy industry so as to benefit his billionaire friends in fossil fuels.
He’s on course to be remembered as the most destructive person in world history, with the possible exception of Adolph Hitler.

Understanding Pete Hegseth
What is said here about Pete Hegseth is clearly true.
But keep in mind that he’s fiercely loyal to Donald Trump, and Trump couldn’t possibly care what happens to the United States, as long as he can stay out of prison and enrich himself and his family.
