Navisun and North Carolina-based developer Queen City Solar have structured a co-development partnership that is advancing 30 MW of community solar in Maryland. 

Queen City Solar is expected to acquire sites, advance development and move projects through permitting. Navisun is slated to take ownership and fund the projects from an early stage, with the partners sharing both risk and upside in the work.

Four of the initial projects will be located in western Maryland on dormant agricultural lots, odd lot parcels and former mining sites. The other five will be located in central and eastern Maryland and will be built on underutilized farmland or family plots. Landowners will receive yearly lease income in exchange for hosting the solar arrays.

“Co-development is a core strategy for us, and we’re committed to developing, co-developing and building community solar projects that serve energy communities and those who haven’t traditionally been able to benefit from solar,” says Matt Preskenis, Navisun’s senior vice president of Business Development.

“These projects will be developed into Maryland’s community solar program in a way that directly benefits income-qualified customers statewide, with more to come.”

The first half of the projects aim to finish development and break ground next year.

Ask a Pro

I’m not a financial pro, but here’s some advice:

Don’t live on a budget.  Make a lot of money and live far beneath your means.  What value does luxury actually bring to your life, especially if it makes you nervous about running out of cash?

As I told my kids when they were growing up, “Unless you’re completely shallow, showing off your money is an idiotic thing to do.  You make false friends and have people glomming onto you to sell you stuff you really don’t need.”

Warren Buffett still lives in a modest house in Nebraska, a state in which he could buy an entire country.  Maybe there is something about him and his values that could benefit you.

I see.

There’s not enough land in Spain to support rooftop and ground-mounted solar at a fraction of the cost.

LOL.

What’s Wrong with Human Civilization?

Published

It’s possible that right now, there are other civilizations observing the human race, studying us from afar, and noticing our decline into savagery and eventual extinction by turning billionaires into trillionaires.

People say that the principal weakness of human beings is that we can’t plan for the future as a species.  Dogs are arguably even worse, though they aren’t consumed with greed.  They don’t plot the starvation of millions of other dogs so they themselves can have enough food to last a billion years.

As an elderly man, I’ll be leaving this planet soon, but I won’t cease pondering this until my heart stops beating.
