Renewable energy developer Green Lantern Solar has closed on the sale of two fully permitted community solar projects to Madison Energy Infrastructure. Both projects, each with a capacity of 975 kilowatts AC, are under construction in Maine and expected to be completed in 2024.

The Mechanic Falls solar project is 1504.2 kW DC located on 7.748 acres in Mechanic Falls, Maine, and is expected to produce 1,845,653 kilowatt hours annually. The Roosevelt Trail solar project in Windham, Maine, features a system size of 1684.8 kW DC located on 11.24 acres. This project is anticipated to generate 1,930,780 kWh annually.

“We are thrilled to close on the sales of these two fully developed and permitted solar projects to our partner Madison Energy Infrastructure, which we hope are the first of many,” says Scott Buckley, president of Green Lantern Solar. “Our goal is to meticulously prepare the best solar projects in optimum locations to ensure that communities and businesses across our footprint can benefit from the clean energy economy. By leveraging local outreach, our deep real estate, engineering and construction expertise and significant transactional efficiencies cultivated over our 15 years in business, Green Lantern Solar’s projects meet the highest standard for acquisition by long-term owner-operators.”

These acquisitions underscore Green Lantern Solar’s commitment to accelerating the adoption of renewable energy solutions and advancing sustainability efforts in Maine and beyond.

“I’ve long admired Green Lantern Solar’s approach to project development,” says Richard Walsh, CEO of Madison Energy Infrastructure. “Their meticulous site selection and focus on community engagement mirror our own values, and this partnership on these Maine projects is a perfect example. We’re proud to collaborate together to deliver on the promise of clean energy.”

If you look this up, you’ll see that it’s correct.  Eisenhower was a fierce advocate of the following:

  • Infrastructure, e.g., the Federal-Aid Highway Act of 1956, creating the 41,000-mile Interstate Highway System to improve national defense and commerce
  • Social Programs, Social Security, minimum wage, the Department of Health, Education, and Welfare
  • Fiscal Policy, lower taxes, a balanced budget, and reduced government regulation, aiming to limit federal intervention in local affairs
  • Foreign Policy, nuclear deterrence and relying on the CIA for covert operations
  • Civil Rights, desegregation of the military and the armed forces, support for the Brown v. Board of Education decision

My only problem with this is the U.S. Constitution, which clearly lays out the laws by which our elections will be conducted.  I.e., it’s up to each of the 50 states to make and implement their own procedures.

Obviously, conspiracy theorists, at the direction of Newsmax and their peers, are convinced that there is a significant amount of voter fraud, but the fact is that there have been only a few dozen incidents of proven fraud out of the last one billion votes cast.

Yes, we could have an amendment could be proposed and passed into law that changes all of this, but until then, I’m going to support the U.S. Constitution, which has done right by the American people since its passage in 1789.

But seriously, what are a few million agonizing deaths from these carcinogens compared with huge campaign donations?
