Honeywell will provide VIElectron, a CB Loranger Company, its first installment of battery energy storage solutions (BESS) to six solar parks across the U.S. Virgin Islands. 

The solution will enable VIElectron to install panels across St. Thomas, St. Croix and St. John, while the 124 MWh BESS will include an end-to-end battery management system delivering energy controls with an integrated safety system.

“Honeywell is committed to helping our customers achieve their energy targets and decarbonization goals,” says Pramesh Maheshwari, president of Honeywell Process Solutions. “This renewable project is an example of how sustainable technologies are helping reduce the cost of energy for the people of the U.S. Virgin Islands and around the world.”

“As we embark on a transformative journey toward renewable energy, Honeywell’s battery storage expertise aligns seamlessly with our vision,” says U.S Virgin Islands governor Albert Bryan Jr. “It propels us closer to our goal of achieving 30% renewable energy consumption in the U.S. Virgin Islands, fostering a cleaner and greener energy ecosystem.”

When completed, the solar array and BESS will boost the islands’ decarbonization efforts by fulfilling 30% of its energy consumption through renewable sources, says the company. It adds that these capabilities will help enable the U.S. Virgin Islands to forecast and optimize energy usage and costs through the 140 MW solar array.

Not sure about this.

A magna cum laude graduate of Harvard Law School might struggle to identify a bear. Could be.

This is the intelligence level of the American electorate today.

The Chinese ownership of American farmland is less than 0.00036, or 0.036%.  To put this into perspective, if the entirety of U.S. farmland were reduced to one acre, the Chinese government and business interests would own less than 15 square feet, about half the size of a small broom closet.

Yet, true to form, this is a huge issue for the MAGA base.

Social Justice and Despotism?

This guy is quite effective in talking to uneducated, conservative Americans, most of whom have never traveled to, or even read anything about the happiest countries on Earth.

If I were going to make a statement about the relationship between social justice and despotism, I would at least consider the lives of the people in places that consider social justice to be something of importance, and compare/contrast this to the list of the countries that are perennially at the top of the World Happiness Rankings.

What makes the people in New Zealand, Iceland, Costa Rica, Northern Europe, etc., so happy?  Why do these are these nations suffer exactly zero despotism?

I would be completely ashamed of myself if I were to forward a political theory that had precisely no basis in fact.
