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.

When You’re Addressing Idiots You Can Get Away with a Lot
At left we have John Fetterman talking to people so stupid they’ll believe that it would have been wrong for the British colonists to oppose King George III in the late 18th Century, or for the people of Germany and Italy in the 1930s to stand up against Hitler and Mussolini. What about the people in today’s dictatorships, i.e., the people in Russia, China, North Korea, or any of the other 50+ authoritarian regimes around the world?
Morons tend to agree with the loudest, most aggressive voice of nationalism, regardless of how little sense it makes.
It’s a great moment of opportunity for Fetterman.

Carl Sagan and the Suppression of Uncomfortable Ideas
Seminal astrophysicist Carl Sagan explains why uncomfortable ideas may be banned in religion, they must not be shunned in science.
This is an important concept in American life today, as conspiracy theorists are convinced that climate change denial cannot be considered in scientific circles.
I happened to bring this up in my interview with Dr. V. Ramanathan of the Scripps Institution, who has been amassing data on global warming since the 1970s. He laughed, and explained, “If I could prove that human activity was not causing temperatures to rise, I’d be be one of the wealthiest and most famous scientists in world history.”

We Came Incredible Close to Averting the Disaster that Is Donald Trump
As suggested at left, a great deal of the hardship that has befallen the U.S. was simply bad luck. Al Gore came within a whisker of victory in 2000, a win that would have forever changed the course of our nation in terms of energy policy, education, healthcare, and international affairs.
If Bernie had become the 2016 nominee, we wouldn’t have had Hillary Clinton telling our country’s most mean-spirited and least-educated people that they were “deplorables,” ushering a criminal sociopath into the White House.
