Governor Kathy Hochul has announced that the New York State Office of Renewable Energy Siting (ORES) issued a final siting permit for Brookside Solar to develop, design, construct, operate, maintain and decommission a 100 MW solar energy facility in Franklin County. 

“New York is taking yet another step forward in building a clean economy,” says Hochul. “By issuing this final siting permit, we’re creating jobs, providing New York families and businesses with clean and sustainable energy, and building a better future for generations of New Yorkers to come.”

The announcement marks the 15th major renewable energy facility permit issued by ORES since 2021. In total, these 15 permits represent over 2.3 GW.

Brookside Solar is expected to provide over $12.7 million in the first 20 years to the county, towns and school districts in the form of payment-in-lieu of taxes and host community agreements to invest in infrastructure, additional services and resources for residents in the communities hosting the facility.

Once completed, this solar facility is expected to generate enough clean energy to power over 16,500 homes and reduce carbon emissions by over 131,000 metric tons, says ORES.

Who discovered molybdenum? In what year? What is its market value?

We are a society in which our facility with science is now in free-fall. If you think that blunting whatever may remain of your child’s natural curiosity with crap like this a good idea, here’s where to shop.

Poor and working-class Americans are struggling with the current economy.

The MAGA base must be going insane.  Trump’s telling them that the economy is great while they’re paying $6/gallon of gas and $12.99 for a pound of hamburger.

Bill Maher’s Political Evolution

Re: what comedian Bill Maher says at left: bullcrap.

The “left” would like to see the United States a) evolve into a social democracy like the countries in Northern Europe, and b) expel its authoritarian president.

Not much new here, and certainly, nothing “goofy.”
