Deriva Energy has acquired Spanish Peaks Solar, a 140 MW solar project in Las Animas County, Colo., from power developer JUWI.

With the addition of the site, Deriva Energy will own and operate 388 MW in Colorado and is set to provide energy to Tri-State Generation and Transmission Association through a 19-year PPA.

“We are excited to announce the successful acquisition of this promising solar project,” says Chris Fallon, Deriva Energy president. “This project underscores our commitment to implementing solutions for a viable energy future. We are thrilled to collaborate with JUWI again in Colorado to create job opportunities, provide clean energy solutions for Tri-State customers, and support the economic growth of Las Animas County.”

Spanish Peaks commenced construction and is expected to come online in the last quarter of this year. JUWI is responsible for the engineering, procurement and construction of the project. Solar modules will be procured by Deriva, who will own the plant and share operations and maintenance responsibilities with JUWI.

Tri-State Generation and Transmission Association Tri-State is a not-for-profit power supply cooperative of 45 members and includes 42 utility electric distribution cooperative and public power district members in four states.

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

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.
