Central Coast Community Energy (3CE), Clean Power Alliance (CPA), Peninsula Clean Energy (PCE) and Silicon Valley Clean Energy (SVCE) celebrated the Arica and Victory Pass solar and storage projects’ ribbon cutting with project developer and owner, Clearway Energy Group. 

The celebration took place at the complex site in Riverside County, Calif.

The projects came online in stages from March through June, and have a combined 463 MW capacity of solar and 186 MW of battery storage.

In total, the Community Choice Aggregators (CCAs) are contracted for 393.5 MW solar capacity and 171 MW battery storage over 15-year agreements.

“To achieve California’s clean energy goals, the CPUC ordered load serving entities like Central Coast Community Energy and Peninsula Clean Energy to bring online over 18,000 MWs of new, clean resources by 2028,” says Leuwam Tesfai, CPUC deputy executive director.

“Projects such as the Arica and Victory Pass solar and storage project exemplify this work toward California’s ambitious carbon reduction goals.”

Socialism and “Free Stuff”

Social democracies are nations in which the tax base provides everyone with healthcare and education, and where the richest and most powerful people are not free to ruin the environment.

I run into someone from one of these counties a couple of times a month, and I like to ask why their people are consistently at the top of the World Happiness Rankings. The normal response is always some variant of the following:

It’s hard to be happy living in a society that is indifferent to the suffering of others.  It’s part of the very nature of human beings to care about one another.

Something else I notice about these places is that very few people are religious.  Sweden, e.g., is about 80% atheist.

That means no childish tribalism, no ridiculous dogmas, no worries about eternal damnation, etc.

Celebrating American Ignorance

There are so many tragic aspects to life in today’s United States that it’s hard to name them all.

For my money, one of the saddest elements to the American zeitgeist is its glorification of ignorance.

Up until recently, if you wanted to know what science believes about anthropology, climate change, or particle physics, you asked a scientist in the relevant discipline, who not only has a college degree, but normally a ton of education on top of that.

Now, you ask a congressional Republican, preferably, an evangelical Christian.
