FirstEnergy subsidiaries Mon Power and Potomac Edison have begun construction on their third utility-scale solar site, in West Virginia.
The 5.75 MW Marlowe solar project is located on a 36-acre property in Berkeley County that was previously an ash disposal site. In 2022, FirstEnergy completed the closure of the landfill, paving the way for its redevelopment. The project is expected to be completed next year.
Mon Power and Potomac Edison are developing five solar projects totalling 50 MW. The companies completed their first solar project at Fort Martin Power Station in Maidsville, with an 18.9 MW capacity in January and started construction in March at a second site in Rivesville, with a 5.5 MW capacity
Combined, the five projects are expected to create 87,000 solar renewable energy credits.
“The redevelopment of this site into a clean, renewable energy source is aligned with our commitment to support economic growth in West Virginia as well as our efforts to build a more sustainable future for the communities we serve,” says Dan Rossero, vice president of FirstEnergy’s West Virginia Generation.

Are Americans Fed Up with Trumpism?
It’s possible that Americans are so angry that the Trump administration has ruined their country and its democracy that paid advertising for Republican candidates is having no effect on them.
We can only hope.

Mike Lindell Paddled in the Primary
Obviously, the endorsement of a much-despised president didn’t help, but what chance did this election-denying moron actually have in a sophisticated state like Minnesota?

In a Strange Way, Trump Is Transparent
One good thing about having Trump in the White House is that doesn’t have enough sense to hide what a terrible person he is.
We all recall the COVID-19 outbreak, and Trump’s suggestion that we reduce our testing for the disease on the basis that less testing means fewer positive results, which means less outrage on the level of Trump’s ineptitude in handling the epidemic.
