National Grid Renewables has begun major construction on two southern Minnesota solar projects, both within the Midcontinent Independent System Operator market.
“As a company that was founded and still headquartered in Minnesota, it’s both exciting and rewarding to see this growth in renewable energy happening right in our own backyard,” says National Grid Renewables’ Joe Ibrahim. “These projects will not only provide additional tax revenue and jobs to the local residents, but also extend our commitment to being good neighbors with local and statewide residents.”
Both the 45 MW Fillmore County Solar project and 50 MW Louise Solar project have executed PPAs with Xcel Energy.
The projects will be constructed by Berry Construction and will utilize Series 6 Plus bifacial solar modules developed and produced by First Solar.

Why Norway Is a World Leader in Renewables
It’s true that Norway is a world leader in renewable energy. To be fair, however, they have a few things going for them.
One is the hydro resource itself, which is enormous, especially considering nation’s small population.
The other, and it’s just as important, is the fact that Norway really wants to remove fossil fuels from its grid-mix. They sport of extremely enlightened people who actually care about the welfare of the people in the world around them

What Can Trump Destroy?
In other posts, we’ve looked at the prospects of a massive refusal on the part of America’s top military to follow a manifestly illegal order, like invading Canada.
What about a less dramatic case? What if I were the chief White House superintendent and Trump told me to bulldoze the East Wing? I’d say, “Sorry, I resign as of this minute. You may find someone who will destroy a national treasure, but it’s sure as hell isn’t going to be me.”

Is the System Rigged?
If I were writing the piece at left, I wouldn’t say, “the system is rigged,” because that implies some clandestine.
I would saw the system is designed to make rich people richer, and to ignore the needs of the masses. It’s working exactly as it’s designed to.
Now it’s true that all this is more obvious now than it was 50 years ago when the average American came out of college and got an office job that enabled him to earn a living wage.
