More than 2 GW of community solar, enough to serve 393,000 homes, have been installed in New York.

This milestone contributes to 5 GW of total distributed solar operating across the state, with 3.3 GW in development. It also marks New York’s progress towards achieving its Climate Leadership and Community Protection Act goal of installing 6 GW of distributed solar by 2025 and 10 GW by 2030.
 
“New York’s two gigawatt community solar achievement proves our commitment to building a clean and healthy future,” says New York governor Kathy Hochul. “Our ongoing investment in community solar generates measurable benefits for our health, our environment, our economy and for the thousands of New Yorkers who can now enjoy lower electric bills, all thanks to our ability to harness the power of the sun.”
 
Community solar makes up 61% of total installations across the state this year to date, and its distributed solar pipeline is comprised of more than 8,700 projects. Once complete, these projects are expected to provide 3,297 MW of clean energy, enough to power more than 600,000 homes.

The Downside of Social Media

At left is a recent post by a “friend” on FB.  A couple of points that illustrate how inane and dangerous social media can be:

  • This is a hoax that was debunked that year.
  • Protesting the U.S. support for what’s happening in Gaza is far different than “organizing pro-Hamas rallies.”
  • Objecting to the free expression of ideas is unAmerican.

Of course, stupidity exists even in the absence of social media, but there is no doubt that it accelerates that rate at which crap like this can be promulgated throughout our society.

This Is a Big Ask

Published

To accept what House Speaker Mike Johnson says here, you’ll have to pretend that you received your DOGE and Tariff checks, that grocery and gasoline prices aren’t through the roof, that the national debt didn’t just break the $40 trillion barrier, and that the United States has won the illegal and pointless war in Iran.

OK, we’re stupid, but there must be a limit.

Please tell me there is a limit.

Trump’s Attempt at Bribery

There are so many obnoxious features of Trump’s offer to bribe voters that it’s impossible to count them all.

Something that jumps out at me is that I live among people whose integrity is for sale for $5000.
