Advanced Power has sold its 100% interest in the 232 MW DC Oriana Solar project to Sabanci Renewables, a subsidiary of Sabanci Holdings.

With the sale of Oriana Solar, Advanced Power has successfully originated and closed four utility-scale solar and solar+battery storage projects totaling more than 800 MW DC and 240 MWh of battery storage capacity.

The sale, which was led by Marathon Capital LLC, is the second transaction Advanced Power has closed with Sabanci.

“We are excited to continue working with Sabanci and successfully transition Oriana Solar through its final development and into construction,” says Thomas Spang, Advanced Power’s CEO.

Oriana Solar will be co-located with 60 MW/120 MWh of battery storage capacity in Victoria County, Texas. The project serve the load centers in the Gulf Coast region of Texas, including Houston, Corpus Christi and Freeport.

Construction of Oriana Solar is expected to begin in the first quarter of 2024, with commercial operation to start in 2025.

Oriana Solar will sell energy and renewable energy credits into the ERCOT power market.

Trump Digs Coal

From “The Other 98”

Trump now wants Americans to believe that greenhouse gases don’t endanger human life, a claim that flies in the face of virtually every scientist on Earth. His administration just erased the EPA’s longstanding “endangerment finding,” the scientific and legal cornerstone that said carbon pollution warms the planet and harms human health. Without it, the EPA can no longer regulate greenhouse gases from factories, cars, or power plants, effectively stripping the federal government of its ability to combat climate change.

Trump is nothing if not predictable and consistent in his policies that fly into the teeth of science and cause grievous harm to our health.

Since science recognize vacci nations as safe and effective, why not appoint an anti-vaxxer to head up the Department of Health and Human Services?

Coal is by far the most toxic source of energy, so guess what Trump supports.

Baby boomers remember shows like Bugs Bunny and Rocky and Bullwinkle, and lament that quality television for young no longer exists.

From the list at left, I wonder why most of these cities are bright blue.

I’m going to guess that life in these places requires affluence, and affluence generally derives from good education, good breeding, good manners, and tolerance for other people.

Santa Barbara is too small (population 89K) to make the list, but it’s incredibly pricey, and it’s next to impossible to find a Trump supporter there.
