Origis Energy and the Tennessee Valley Authority (TVA) have reached commercial operations on Golden Triangle II, the first of three solar plus storage projects in the companies’ Mississippi portfolio. 

The 150 MW solar project with 50 MW battery storage began generating electricity earlier this month.

“Solar energy enhances Mississippi’s economic competitiveness, and Origis is removing limits to a cleaner, brighter future by building the region’s clean-energy infrastructure,” says Origis’ Johan Vanhee. “Golden Triangle II is the first step in fostering a zero-carbon economy across the state that supports our nation’s economic and energy security goals.”

Two other Origis projects in Mississippi are expected to be completed next year: Golden Triangle I, in Lowndes County, a 200 MW  project with 50 MW of battery storage; and Optimist, in Clay County, a 200 MW project with 50 MW of battery storage.

Origis developed, constructed and will operate the three projects for TVA, which is set to deliver energy under PPAs executed between the companies.

RES is providing construction services to Origis for the portfolio. Utility-scale battery storage for each site is provided by Prevalon Energy.

A couple of points:

Actually, there are 11.4 million deer hunters, 4.6 million use archery and 6.8 million use guns. It just takes a second to look this up, and doing so prevents one from spreading malicious lies.

Hunters don’t use not assault weapons, which are almost always chosen by mass murderers.  No one with any sense objects to rifles being sold to hunters.

With each passing day, Trump’s rhetoric reveals to an even greater degree his cruelty, his vindictiveness, and most of all, his lack of understanding of the U.S. Constitution.  The only thing he has on his side is his capacity to mirror the hate and ignorance of his MAGA base.

We used to be proud of our country.

How Japan (Doesn’t) Fight Fires

I’ve been to Japan. They’re sharp people.

At the very least, they don’t have people stupid enough to indiscriminately shoot water all over a village because of a kitchen fire.
