Arizona Public Service (APS) has signed agreements in what it calls the company’s largest-ever planned addition of new power sources.
In all, APS will add 7,300 MW of renewable power, battery energy storage and natural gas to meet the state’s growing energy demand for energy. The deals were signed through the company’s 2023 All Source Request for Proposals (ASRFP).
“With almost 7,300 MW of energy signed, this will be the largest energy supply we’ve ever procured through an RFP for APS customers,” says Brian Cole, APS vice president of Resource Management.
“Most importantly, this portfolio will provide reliable, cost-competitive electricity, with 93% of this supply coming directly from clean energy technologies. I’m proud of our resource acquisition team’s diligent work to close the best project deals with the most value for our customers.”
The company says customers can anticipate a mix of projects in operation by 2026. Projects include:
- New solar plant: The Ironwood Solar Plant is slated to deliver 170 MW. Located in Yuma County, the plant’s construction has started and is anticipated to be in service in 2026.
- Solar power added: As an addition to APS’s existing portfolio and customer rooftop solar, the company contracted for 2,480 MW of solar resources through PPAs.
- Storage slated for APS solar plant: At the Agave Solar Plant, located in Maricopa County, 400,000 solar panels began serving customers last year. Construction is underway to pair 150 MW of new battery energy storage with this facility.
- More energy storage through PPAs: When solar power is abundant, the company says storage units will be capable of capturing 3,460 MW.

uthor of the meme here, I would suggest that hate and ignorance are far more aggressive forms of cancer.
Yes, Hegseth and RFK, Jr. will be gone, but I think what’s going to happen first is the decapitation of the snake itself, i.e., the removal of Trump from the presidency.
Based on the news on social media, this could happen via the 25th Amendment, based on Trump’s mental deterioration. In my view, that’s a shame. If he’s not criminally prosecuted, this nation will be deprived of letting the American people and the rest of the world know that rule of law still matters in the United States.

When I was young, I heard someone say, “The first execution this country televises will be the last one ever performed here.”
I think he was right at that time. You’d have millions of people watch that barbarism and realize that it was done in their name.
But today, we’re a far more insensitive, brutal, and stupid people that we were 50 years ago. If you doubt that, just look at the quality of the people at the top of the federal government–people like RFK, Jr., Hegseth, and Trump.
