The Port Authority of New York and New Jersey and the New York Power Authority (NYPA) began construction of what the state calls its largest onsite solar plus storage project to date: a solar carport canopy at John F. Kennedy International Airport.
Once operational, the project is expected to help power the AirTrain and reduce electricity costs for residents of low-income neighborhoods in Queens. Located in the airport’s long-term parking lot 9, the JFK solar carport will be erected as a canopy, and is expected to generate 12 MW. The project will also include a 7.5 MW BESS.
“We are breaking ground on a game-changing solar project, which will give power to the AirTrain and support thousands of families in Queens,” says New York’s governor, Kathy Hochul. “Supporting local minority- and women-owned businesses, this project will deepen our investment in the community while pushing forward New York’s nation-leading climate goals.”
The project is set to be built in two phases. Phase 1 is expected to deliver energy by next March. Phase 2 is expected to deliver energy to Con Edison for the surrounding community in April 2026.

It’s actually surprising that it took so long for Trump to favor Putin in Russia’s war with Ukraine.
Trump loves all the things that Putin stands for: brutality against dissidents, defying the law, war crimes, lies, and fascism.
If it were possible, Trump would enjoy the same absolute power that Putin has, and Kim Jong Un has in North Korea.
To his credit, Trump is astute when it comes to the timing of his atrocities. Had he abandoned Ukraine in favor of Putin’s Russia too early, the American people would have been outraged.
Now, after Iran, detention centers, gas prices, farm failures, killing clean energy, years of support for white nationalism, gutting U.S. education, and so forth, Trump’s backing Russia seems perfectly normal.
Bercerra comes with some baggage, but at least he’s not endorsed by Trump.
The bulk of California’s population lives on or near the Pacific Coast, and consists of affluent and well-educated people who want to see Trump removed, convicted, and incarcerated. Yes, the inland folks are largely farmers, but their numbers are far too small to elect a Republican in the GOP of today, with this corruption, ignorance, racism, and cruelty.
