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.

LOL – Republicans Need More Time to Improve Affordability

If the situation in the United States weren’t so tragic, this meme would be funny.

The Republicans are banking on the fact that American voters are so stupid that they don’t know that it was the Trump administration that created the affordability issues.  Gas prices around here are currently almost exactly $2.00 more than they were when Trump started this pointless and illegal war in Iran.

Lies: Their Purpose

Does what Hannah Arendt said at left apply to Donald Trump today?

Not sure.  I’m fairly certain that, for instance, Trump wants as many morons as possible to believe that the 2020 election was rigged.

However, the bulk of what she said is absolutely true.  Trump most certainly wants to deprive people of the capacity to think and judge.
