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.

Is There a Pattern in Republicans’ Behavior?

I’m not sure it’s as simple as this, insofar as Bush 41 and 43 weren’t criminal sociopaths.

I happened to be driving through Manhattan on the very day that Colin Powell was addressing the United Nations just a few miles away and claimed, and I think honestly, that Saddam Hussein had “weapons of mass destruction,” and must be stopped by a U.S. military invasion.

Contrast that against what we’re doing in Iran.  Fifteen years ago, the Joint Comprehensive Plan of Action (JCPOA), included Iran, the P5+1 nations (the United States, China, Russia, France, the United Kingdom, and Germany), alongside the European Union made an agreement in which most of the developed world agreed that Iran must not have a nuclear weapon.

That stood firmly in place until Trump’s latest war crime, which is costing lives and choking the world economy, solely to defend our president’s neuroses.

Illegal Immigrants Are Voting Huge?

The Brennan Center at NYU’s seminal report on this issue, The Truth About Voter Fraud, found that most reported incidents of voter fraud are actually traceable to other sources, such as clerical errors or bad data matching practices. The report reviewed elections that had been meticulously studied for voter fraud and found incident rates between 0.0003 percent and 0.0025 percent.

Does that stop liars like Mike Lee from spreading disinformation of the subject?  Of course not.

There is no judgement day.  There is no Saint Peter standing in front of the Pearly Gates discerning good from evil and acting according.

That’s a lucky break for Mike Lee.

But yes, none of us was prepared for the cold, calculating criminal who is Donald Trump.
