Cubico Sustainable Investments has commenced operations at Crossett Solar Park, a 132 MW PV facility located in Ashley County, Ark. 

Google has completed a long-term PPA with Crossett to support its data center operations in the Midwest.

In June, the tax equity financing for the project was closed with Greenprint Capital, acting as the tax equity partner. The solar farm commenced commercial operations last month.

Following the completion of the Delta’s Edge solar farm in Mississippi, which entered operations last December, Crossett became Cubico’s second operational project connected to the Midcontinent Independent System Operator.

“With the successful launch of Crossett Solar Park, our team continues to demonstrate its capability in delivering high-quality renewable energy projects while actively developing a strong greenfield pipeline,” says Cubico’s Stacey Kusters.

“We are delighted to partner with Google to provide their data center campuses in the Midwest with carbon-free energy from one of our assets. This Power Purchase Agreement highlights the crucial role of clean energy projects in sustainably powering data centers as the demand from AI and machine learning grows across America and beyond.”

This agreement was facilitated through LEAP (LevelTen Energy’s Accelerated Process), co-developed by Google and LevelTen Energy.

Whether these days of hate and oppression will persist for a “long, long time,” or whether the pendulum is about to swing back the other way remains to be seen.

It’s certainly a terrible time to be an American.

No Hungry Kids

Published

I just saw a question on social media: do you want your tax dollars going to feed someone else’s kids??

Yes.  I’d like to live in a world in which no kids go hungry, and I don’t have a problem contributing to create that world.

This may sound like a tall order, especially given the variability of wealth in the world’s countries.

But let’s stick with the U.S. for a minute.  In the US, nearly 14 million children live in food-insecure households, a statistic that has risen recently, with some reports indicating that one in five children face hunger.

This is disgraceful.

So again, yes.  Please sign me up to allocate a portion of my tax dollars to feeding hungry kids.
