Birch Creek Energy has closed on a $150 million credit facility within KKR’s High-Grade Asset-Based Finance strategy via insurance accounts managed by KKR. 

The financing extends and upsizes Birch Creek’s previous $100 million facility, and it will be used to finance development expenses and equipment for solar farms in the company’s development portfolio.

The company says that it presently owns 160 MW of operating projects in its independent power producer, with an additional 187 MW under construction set to place in service over by the end of 2024.

“We are thrilled to have strengthened our relationship with KKR through the renewal and upsize of our credit facility,” says Dan Siegel, CEO of Birch Creek.

“Through this facility, we are able to continue the development of solar projects in certain core markets, while also funding select equipment purchases for projects closer to construction. We are proud to work with KKR and appreciate their confidence in our platform as we continue to grow our unique, speed-to-market strategy.”

There really are threats to human civilization that seem to be mounting in intensity:

• World fascism.  (If it can happen in the U.S., it could conceivably happen anywhere.)

• Environmental collapse.

• Malicious use of AI.

• Pandemics, as misinformation on vaccinations spread and the frozen tundra melts, releasing pathogens never seen by humans.

• Nuclear war.

Addressing the point made at left, is there any scenario in which world governments agree to cooperate so as to stave off the end of an organized society here on Earth?  One supposes so, though it sounds far-fetched in today’s world in which the leaders of most of the 200+ sovereign nations are trying so desperately to cling to power.

Obviously, James Carville has been wrong before, but it appears that he’s onto something here.

An ever-increasing number of Americans are realizing that Trump is criminally insane, and is leading this nation to destruction.

The Economics of Climate Change Mitigation

It’s a pleasure to see that Dr. Brian Cox has people so popular, having joined the ranks for Neil DeGrasse Tyson, Bill Nye, and a few others.  This phenomenon of celebrity physicists if one of very few bright spots in our modern world.

I would qualify what he says at left as follows: the only people who hate the economics here are those invested in fossil fuels.  Clean energy and transportation are already huge industries, and they’re growing at an amazing pace–even in the face of heavy suppression by Big Oil and Donald Trump.
