Arevon Energy has begun operations at its Vikings Solar+Storage Project in Imperial County, Calif., near Holtville. 

The $529 million project includes 157 MW of solar coupled with 150 MW of battery energy storage.

“Vikings’ advanced design sets the standard for safe and reliable solar+storage configurations,” says Kevin Smith, CEO at Arevon 

“The project incorporates solar panels, trackers and batteries that showcase the growing strength of U.S. renewable energy manufacturing. Its completion marks a significant milestone for Arevon, as we continue to meet California’s clean energy needs while advancing energy security and independence nationwide.”

Megapack battery energy storage systems for the project were manufactured by Tesla in Lathrop, Calif., First Solar provided thin film PV solar panels and Nextracker provided smart solar trackers. San Diego-headquartered SOLV Energy led the EPC activities.

San Diego Community Power is the project’s offtaker through a long-term agreement with Arevon. The companies have also executed a commercial agreement for Arevon’s 200 MW Avocet Energy Storage Project located in the City of Carson, Calif., which is expected to start construction next year.

Trump’s Supporters Eat Up His Lies

I’ve never understood why those who compose total bullshit like this don’t go for the gusto.  Why 95% and not 99% or 100%?

Trump’s actual approval rating among Republicans is somewhere between 75% and 80%, as can be easily verified by anyone on Earth with a cell phone or computer. That number continues to dwindle, as he faces more pressure regarding the war, gas prices, child rape, etc.

Obviously, the president’s supporters are suckers for his lies, but isn’t this a bit over the top?

I get a call every week or so from someone working for a start-up in oil exploration, hoping that I’ll invest.  I guess my name and cell number got collected somehow from various online searches I’ve made.

I’m always quick to explain, “Oh, sorry, I don’t support wrecking the planet, even if I can profit from it.  Neither should you. Bye now.”
