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.

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.
