CleanCapital has acquired a 13 MW operating solar portfolio made up of two brownfield assets, Steel Sun II and Homeridae, in upstate New York from BQ Energy Development. 

The projects have been operational since 2019.

“The work we did at BQ Energy, including developing and operating these two exceptional projects, is a source of great pride for me,” says Paul Curran, chief development officer at CleanCapital.

“Fully integrating the former BQ team into CleanCapital has produced a development team with the expertise, track record and financial runway to develop, build and operate hundreds of megawatts in the next few years. Our focus now is to execute on the more than 100 projects in our pipeline and deliver more clean megawatts to our customers as expeditiously as we can.”

Steel Sun II is located on the former Bethlehem Steel site on Buffalo’s waterfront, with energy generated by this project contracted to Kaleida Health and Canisius University.

The Homeridae project is one of two solar arrays in Olean sited on a former oil refinery and tank farm.

Both sites benefited from the Department of Environmental Conservation Region 9 brownfield cleanup program. Both have been financed by M&T Bank’s Commercial Equipment Finance Group.

Texas Goes Blue

A friend from Texas writes: It’s been an interesting week! A lot to reflect on. And Texas seems to be the epicenter.  Folks are pretty flabbergasted over the defeat of all statewide Republican candidates (including state supreme court justices) and the election of a Democratic party-controlled state house.

Yes, Texas blew everyone’s mind.  I think what the GOP experienced was a double-whammy if you will.

Consumer prices are high, due at least in part to Trump’s inane and illegal war in Iran.  This is impacting the lives of working class Americans.

I’m pleased to be able to report that many people still have a conscience, which causes them to reject the GOP’s cruelty, dishonesty, dismissal of science, and criminality.

White Guys Not Really Catching On

As shown here, white men, especially uneducated white men, are still not able to see that Trump is terrible for America.

If the last two years didn’t change that, it appears that nothing will.

A Few Things in U.S. Politics that Don’t Make Sense

Published

on

The vast majority of Americans are thrilled that the midterms brought us the “blue tsunami,” but there are a couple of things that don’t really add up.  You may have noticed that:

The U.S. wants a random alcoholic Fox News “journalist’s” head on the plate for having orchestrated the war in Iran, when all he was doing was pursuing his loyalty to Donald Trump, the man who started this asinine and grossly illegal war.

There seems to be no effort to cause Trump, who tried to violently overthrow the U.S. federal government, to face accountability for his treasonous acts.

What’s up with the media? Is there a concerted effort to avoid the facts? What’s the problem with honesty, and telling Americans the truth? Isn’t this the clearest instance of gaslighting in our history? Are we now trying to pretend that Trump never existed?

If such a landslide victory against a would-be autocrat had happened anywhere else on Earth, that traitor would be in prison now, in most cases facing execution.
