The Maryland Public Service Commission (PSC) has granted Chaberton Energy‘s 7.65 MW Project Bonneville a Certificate of Public Convenience and Necessity, allowing the community solar project in Jarrettsville in Harford County to move forward.
The company says this is the first time a community solar project has been recommended under Maryland’s Power Plant Research Program (PPRP), which coordinates the state’s comprehensive review of proposed power generating and transmission facilities. The PPRP was designed so that regulators could ensure applications are vetted before being sent to the PSC.
“Maryland is one of the most supportive states in the nation for community solar projects,” says Stefano Ratti, Chaberton’s CEO and founder.
“We are proud to play a leading role in our home state, and we hope that other states will follow Maryland’s example in promoting critical clean energy infrastructure.”
Chaberton has more than 190 MW of community solar projects in development and construction in Maryland.
Once constructed, the Bonneville project will occupy 37 acres of a 186-acre plot of land. It is set to include pollinator habitat.

Remembering G.W. Bush
In 2001, I remembered being deeply disappointed that G.W. Bush had become our 43rd U.S president, on the basis that he was clearly unintelligent, and that the Republicans were already climate deniers.
That said, Bush was not criminally insane, and about half of all American voters would not support a psychotic in the White House.
Now, the vast majority of U.S. voters would be thrilled to trade out Donald Trump for the good old days of being led by a sane imbecile.

Understanding (or Failing to) Climate Denialism
I can’t understand how a young history/poli-sci major who has become a social media “influencer” has superior credibility to tens of thousands of climate scientists, many of whom I know personally, who have been studying this subject since the 1970s.
Can someone help me here?

Sorry, Trump Couldn’t Care Less about Anyone but Himself
At first, I thought the meme at left was a joke, but upon further reflection, I realized that it was not.
