Ameren Missouri is moving forward with building a third solar facility to meet growing demand from customers for community solar. 

This latest site, recently approved by the Missouri Public Service Commission, is part of Ameren Missouri’s Community Solar program. The energy center will be located alongside the existing Montgomery Community Solar Center in New Florence, an hour west of St. Louis.

The first installation at St. Louis Lambert International Airport went into service in 2019. The Montgomery facility began serving customers in 2022.

Construction of the solar center is anticipated to begin as early as next spring, with the goal of serving customers in 2026.

“The Community Solar Program is an easy way for customers to support renewables and accelerate solar energy development, all without having to install their own solar panels,” says Greg Lovett, program manager for Community Solar at Ameren Missouri.

“Customer interest in community solar also helps us gain regulatory approval for the development of new facilities that will enable net-zero carbon emissions by 2045.”

Approximately 4,700 residential and small business customers have signed up to be part of the program.

Ask a Pro

I’m not a financial pro, but here’s some advice:

Don’t live on a budget.  Make a lot of money and live far beneath your means.  What value does luxury actually bring to your life, especially if it makes you nervous about running out of cash?

As I told my kids when they were growing up, “Unless you’re completely shallow, showing off your money is an idiotic thing to do.  You make false friends and have people glomming onto you to sell you stuff you really don’t need.”

Warren Buffett still lives in a modest house in Nebraska, a state in which he could buy an entire country.  Maybe there is something about him and his values that could benefit you.

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?

Published

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.
