Sunnova Energy International has been selected by the Penobscot Nation in Maine to deploy a 0.5 MW battery energy storage system (BESS) for the tribe’s community and commerce facilities.
“The advanced solar microgrid for the Penobscot Nation will be a source of clean, reliable power to protect and strengthen the community for years to come,” says Michael Grasso, executive vice president and chief revenue officer at Sunnova.
“Community microgrids have proven to be highly effective in combating power outages, which are becoming more frequent across the country. Recent destructive hurricanes, in addition to more regular heat waves and severe winter weather, all continue to expose the vulnerability of the electrical grid. Sunnova’s solar and battery storage systems offer a life-changing source of power for homeowners, businesses and communities.”
The project is supported by the Maine Grid Resilience Program, which selected Sunnova along with six Maine utilities to deploy electric grid resilience projects in communities throughout the state.
Sunnova’s microgrid system for the Penobscot Nation will be backed by its standard 25-year service plan.

There really are threats to human civilization that seem to be mounting in intensity:
• World fascism. (If it can happen in the U.S., it could conceivably happen anywhere.)
• Environmental collapse.
• Malicious use of AI.
• Pandemics, as misinformation on vaccinations spread and the frozen tundra melts, releasing pathogens never seen by humans.
• Nuclear war.
Addressing the point made at left, is there any scenario in which world governments agree to cooperate so as to stave off the end of an organized society here on Earth? One supposes so, though it sounds far-fetched in today’s world in which the leaders of most of the 200+ sovereign nations are trying so desperately to cling to power.
Obviously, James Carville has been wrong before, but it appears that he’s onto something here.
An ever-increasing number of Americans are realizing that Trump is criminally insane, and is leading this nation to destruction.
It’s a pleasure to see that Dr. Brian Cox has people so popular, having joined the ranks for Neil DeGrasse Tyson, Bill Nye, and a few others. This phenomenon of celebrity physicists if one of very few bright spots in our modern world.
I would qualify what he says at left as follows: the only people who hate the economics here are those invested in fossil fuels. Clean energy and transportation are already huge industries, and they’re growing at an amazing pace–even in the face of heavy suppression by Big Oil and Donald Trump.
