The Clean Power Alliance (CPA) board of directors has approved a multi-site PPA with Coast Energy to install renewable backup power systems in 11 public buildings within CPA communities. 

The PPA with Coast Energy supports CPA’s Power Ready program in providing participating public agencies which serve a critical community purpose with resiliency capabilities at no cost by installing solar-plus-storage systems to ensure a backup energy source when a power outage occurs. The backup systems are projected to become operational by the end of 2025.

“The Power Ready program was designed so Clean Power Alliance could directly support power resiliency needs in communities we serve,” says Matthew Langer, CPA’s COO. “As impacts from climate change such as heat events and wildfire risk increase the chance of power outages, it’s become imperative to have clean energy backup power in public buildings that serve critical needs. It’s exciting to see this program launch and provide emergency power generation throughout Los Angeles and Ventura counties.”

CPA is contracting with solar developer Coast Energy Consortium to build, own and operate the systems for 20 years.

In total, Power Ready’s backup energy systems are expected to have a collective 1.15 MW of PV systems paired with 1.17 MW of BESS capacity.

I see.

There’s not enough land in Spain to support rooftop and ground-mounted solar at a fraction of the cost.

LOL.

What’s Wrong with Human Civilization?

It’s possible that right now, there are other civilizations observing the human race, studying us from afar, and noticing our decline into savagery and eventual extinction by turning billionaires into trillionaires.

People say that the principal weakness of human beings is that we can’t plan for the future as a species.  Dogs are arguably even worse, though they aren’t consumed with greed.  They don’t plot the starvation of millions of other dogs so they themselves can have enough food to last a billion years.

As an elderly man, I’ll be leaving this planet soon, but I won’t cease pondering this until my heart stops beating.

The drawing here reminds me of a conversation I had with my mother in the early days of 2GreenEnergy when she saw that my focus had become an ongoing effort to improve the wellbeing of all the planet’s inhabitants–now and into the future.

She asked me, “Why don’t you just live your life?”

I explained, “This is my life.”
