Ameresco has completed a 26.3 MW solar farm in DePue, Ill., consisting of 65,832 PV panels installed on ballast blocks above ground and is estimated to produce 37,000 MWh in its first year of operation.

The company has served as developer, builder and owner of the solar farm on the brownfield site and began development plans in 2019. It will provide maintenance and support services for the life of the facility.

“We’re so glad to have seen this important renewable energy project through to completion and commend the village of DePue and the state of Illinois for their commitment to a cleaner, more sustainable future,” says Lou Maltezos, executive vice president of Ameresco. “We look forward to seeing the economic and environmental benefits of this new solar farm for years to come.”

With the project’s completion, DePue will benefit from a portion of the energy generated for facility usage, in addition to permitting fees collected throughout the site’s development. Bureau County will collect increased property tax revenue from the project’s completion.

Sorry, too much literacy there.  Too many college graduates and IQ points.

My advice for Lindell: Move to Mississippi or West Virgina and run for governor there.

This Week’s Flywheel Scam

Published

When 2GreenEnergy was launched in 2009, there was still some talk about flywheels as potentially scalable solutions for energy storage.  But in the last 10 years, no one’s heard a peep about this subject from any credible source.

Of course, now we have charlatans coming out of the woodwork, calling on idiots to invest in clean energy “technologies” that are totally nonsensical, like these conmen.

In today’s world where honesty is a joke, you can count on criminal liars to emerge from the shadows to rip off a few (or many) idiots.

Lessons from the Ancient Greeks

Published

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.
