KeyState Renewables and Monarch Private Capital have closed nearly $100 million in tax equity financing with North Carolina-based Pine Gate Renewables on the Glover Creek solar project near Bowling Green, Ky.

Glover Creek was the second solar project to receive a permit from the state’s Electric Generation and Transmission Siting Board and is the first solar project to be constructed in Metcalfe County.

Upon completion, the project will generate 76.65 MW DC. Pine Gate Renewables, via its project entity, Glover Creek Solar LLC, has entered into a 20-year power purchase agreement with Constellation NewEnergy Inc., a wholly owned subsidiary of publicly traded Constellation Energy Generation.

KeyState Renewables launched its tax equity platform, SOLCAP, with Corner Power in 2019. Since then, SOLCAP has raised and deployed over $265 million in solar tax equity for investors.

This is SOLCAP’s second tax equity investment with Pine Gate Renewables. In February 2020, SOLCAP closed financing on a portfolio of six solar projects in Oregon and South Carolina with Pine Gate Renewables.

It’s not as if the United States has held the moral high ground throughout its history, with its slavery, the butchering of the Indians, Jim Crow, the support of tyrannical dictatorships around the globe, and the corrupt suppression of the working class in favor of Trump’s billionaire donors.

Yet, it was very recently that the entire nation became a force for the destruction of civil society.

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.
