Deriva Energy has commenced commercial operation at Pike Solar in El Paso County, Colo., which is set to provide energy to Colorado Springs Utilities through a 17-year PPA.

Pike Solar, located on 1,310 acres south of Colorado Springs, has a 175 MW capacity and is the first solar plant under commercial operation under the new Deriva banner.

“We are grateful for the support of the local community, state stakeholders, and our dedicated team for bringing this solar plant to completion,” says Chris Fallon, Deriva Energy president. “This is a critical step closer to achieving Colorado Springs Utilities’ sustainable energy goals and look forward to powering homes and businesses with new, clean electricity.”

JUWI completed the development, engineering and construction of the project and will provide operation and maintenance services for Pike Solar. Deriva Energy will own the plant and share operations and maintenance responsibilities with JUWI.

Incompetence? Not Really

Incompetence isn’t actually the issue with Trump.

Imagine for an instant that the president was paid $100 billion per year to run this country, and that he was given a $50 billion annual merit-based bonus if his key statistics were up that measured how well the country was doing in terms of the quality of Americans’ lives. Do you think he’d be starting useless and illegal wars that drive up consumer prices?  Destroying the educational system and the environment?

Not for a millisecond.

When Truth No Longer Matters

Published

One of the casualties of the post-truth era is that the statements of our “leaders” no longer are required to have any basis in fact.  What Jim Jordan says here is a fine example.

When he says “better” here, is he referring to runaway inflation?  Trump’s purposeless and illegal war with no end in sight?  His blatant corruption and criminality? His having, quite successfully, divided the American people into groups that hate each other?  The enrichment of billionaires at the expense of the working class?  The carefully engineered collapse of the environment so as to favor his donors in fossil fuels?  The demise of the U.S. educational system?

Please be clear.
