Aggreko’s Energy Transition Solutions (Aggreko ETS) has acquired a portfolio of nine New York community solar projects. 

The installations are set to total approximately 59 MW of generating capacity when construction is complete, says the company. Along with the acquisition’s closing, Aggreko ETS has connected the first of the nine projects to the grid, a 5.9 MW project in the town of Vernon.

Aggreko ETS is now overseeing the construction of the community solar projects to ensure they reach commercialization and grid connectivity within the next year. The opportunity to acquire the projects on a bilateral basis was made possible through Aggreko ETS’s existing relationships with the seller, engineering, procurement and construction provider, as well as its financing parties.

“We’re thrilled to complete this important transaction, which reinforces Aggreko’s capabilities as an experienced renewable energy developer, owner, and operator that can deftly structure and execute complicated asset acquisitions to scale its business,” says Prashanth Prakash, Aggreko ETS’s CCO.

“The acquisition of these projects strategically supports the growth of Aggreko ETS’ community solar segment, which includes a complementary portfolio of assets under development in New York and several other states,” adds Jerry Polacek, Aggreko ETS president.

Lessons from the Ancient Greeks

It’s interesting that the countries that have the highest levels of education have the lowest levels of crime.

Some have suggested that the United States deliberately under-educates its people so as to fill its for-profit prisons. I’m not so cynical, but it’s clear that we care very little about educating our masses, and we seem to accept higher rates of crime than our more progressive counterparts.

Nations in Northern Europe and elsewhere around the world are tearing down their prisons, because so few of their people turn to crime. No one is hungry, impoverished, or living on the streets.

We regard the underclass as animals; others regard everyone as a human being.

This asshole’s only strength is his ability to prey on Americans’ ignorance, in this case, failure to understand that the platforms of the Republicans and Democrats flipflopped in the early 20th Century.

Bashing Socialism

Margaret Thatcher made this comment in the 1980s, before the Internet made it possible for most people to figure out that:

  • The countries that make universal healthcare and free education available to their citizens are the happiest nations and Earth, and
  • The United States offers its people a great number of free services: roads, bridges, tunnels, firefighting, national defense, embassies, air traffic control, food safety, libraries, public schools, FEMA, criminal justice and corrections, law enforcement, OSHA, auto safety, disease control, the upkeep of our local, state, and national parks and beaches, animal control, space exploration, and dozens of other items.
