National Renewable Solutions (NRS) has closed on $145 million in project financing for its Shallow Basket Project, a 140 MW solar and 50 MW storage project located in Rio Arriba County, N.M. 

The project is under construction and is expected to be operational next year. NRS developed the project and will continue to own and operate it.

Deutsche Bank provided the construction financing. Guzman Energy is set to purchase 100% of the power and associated renewable attributes.

Jicarilla Apache Nation is leasing its land for Shallow Basket and will also benefit from power produced by the project through its wholesale supply agreement with Guzman Energy.

“The financing of Shallow Basket Project represents an exciting turning point for NRS,” says Bill Whitlock, CEO of NRS.

“The culmination of years of planning, this solar and storage project supports our strategy of retaining our projects through operation. Thank you to Deutsche Bank for their support. We are grateful for the opportunity to grow our relationship with the Jicarilla Apache Nation as we complete construction and operate the project for the long haul.”

Albuquerque-based Gridworks is the engineering, procurement and construction provider.

Consider the meme here, and then remember that the nine of the ten poorest states in the U.S. (Mississippi, Louisiana, West Virgina, Kentucky, Arkansas, Alabama, Oklahoma, Tennessee, and South Carolina) are all bright red.

How do they get away with stupidity like this?

Well, there’s the bottom of the state rankings for education:

  • 46. Mississippi
  • 47. Kentucky
  • 48. Louisiana
  • 49. Arkansas
  • 50. West Virginia

Do you see any correlation?

Good question here at left.

To me, it depends.

If the person seems intelligent enough to be able to hold a thought in his head that opposes his current beliefs, I’d actively encourage the discussion.  Otherwise, I’m out.  No need to raising someone’s temper for no reason or gain.

Emigrating to a Social Democracy

Published

To the jackass who sent me the meme here: What about the 5 million Americans who moved to Canada? What about the steady flow of Americans expatriating to Costa Rica, New Zealand, Australia, Iceland and Northern Europe?

My wife and I have two kids and a grandchild in the States, and we have a gaggle of medicos to address the various health conditions associated with aging.  If that weren’t the case, I’d be writing this from Stockholm or Aukland.

I wouldn’t be looking for a “utopia,” just an escape from the frustration, anger, and sadness that I feel every day, as I watch the country I love deteriorate into authoritarianism.
