Nextracker and JENNMAR Holdings subsidiary JM Steel have completed an expansion of Nextracker-dedicated manufacturing lines at JM Steel’s Leetsdale, Pa. facility, achieving 4 GW of capacity.
Inaugurated and reopened in 2022, the refurbished factory produces steel components for solar energy across Pennsylvania and the mid-Atlantic. The expansion more than doubles the facility’s production capacity, says the company.
“We are thrilled to be partnered with JM Steel and celebrate the expansion of the Pittsburgh facility to serve customer demand,” says Dan Shugar, founder and CEO of Nextracker.
“This facility is also expected to produce core components of our new low carbon tracker offering announced this week. The U.S. solar market is continuing to demonstrate strong growth. The U.S. Energy Information Administration has forecasted solar to grow 26% on an annual compounded rate and be the number one source of energy in the U.S. within a decade.”
The ground investigation will use a combination of cone penetration tests and sampling boreholes.
“The geotechnical data from these site investigations will give our engineers a detailed and accurate picture of the individual ground conditions at sites of the foundations and associated offshore infrastructure,” says Colin McAllister, DBS development project manager.
“We already have high-level data about the seabed conditions from reconnaissance surveys conducted in 2022. With the level of detail captured from the new surveys, however, we can design the most effective foundations for each turbine and platform in the project. We expect similar detailed surveys to take place at DBS East in the future.”
RWE entered into lease agreements for the two DBS projects with The Crown Estate last year.

Why History Professors Are Liberals
The point made here is hotly contested.
Fox News will tell you that college professors were indoctrinated into progressivism when they were in college, and they’re simply passing all this down the line. This is why, they’ll go on to explain, that college is an evil force in our society, as it cranks out liberals.
FWIW, I agree with the commenter at the bottom. One finds a few intelligent and well-educated people in the MAGA crowd, very few. And the most obvious reason for this is that bright people can see through the layers upon layers of lies and criminality that emanate from Trump every hour of the day.
Occam’s Razor explains this very nicely to me.

Solar Flowers
Two things:
1) As far as I’m aware, these “Solar Flowers” exist nowhere on Earth. They’re certainly not in Los Angeles.
2) Engineers (and anyone with IQ of a turnip) are not split as their value; they have none.
