Nextracker and Unimacts have jointly announced plans for a new factory in the Las Vegas area.

This would be the second Nextracker-dedicated manufacturing line that Unimacts has opened in the last year, with their 160,000 square-foot facility in Sloan, Nev. producing steel torque tubes used to hold and rotate PV panels in solar power plants.

The two factories would be expected to support 2 GW of new solar power each year, says the company.

“American manufacturing has quickly become the heartbeat of the clean energy revolution,” adds Dan Shugar, founder and CEO of Nextracker.

“There is a trifecta of perfect conditions for this manufacturing renaissance: a terrific workforce, a great localized clean steel industry and strong demand for renewable energy. Over the last three years, Nextracker has operationalized over 20 factories, catalyzing thousands of jobs. This is what growth and scaling look like.”

Will Mr. Pillow Become the Next Governor of Minnesota?

According to a recent poll conducted by Emerson College, if the election were held today, Mike Lindell would lose to Amy Klobuchar by a margin of 53% to 31%.

Now, exactly what does that translate to in terms of a probability of Lindell’s winning?  I’m unaware of a scientific method of making that calculation, but it can’t be more than 1 or 2 percent.  Perhaps the same as a three-legged horse winning the Kentucky Derby this coming May.

Minnesota is one of the least favorable states in the union for a moron Trump supporting liar, who lost a $2.3 million defamation suit when he claimed that Dominion Voting Systems had rigged the 2020 election in favor of Biden.

Sure, California or Massachusetts would be worse, but most Minnesotans are well educated and affluent people with solid moral values.

Waste Tire to Fuels

Published

It’s nice see that the company at left says that its “goal” is waste tire to fuels, rather than that it actually doing so, which would be a lie, albeit one that is commonly told.

About 15 years ago, there were many dozens of organizations working on this, but none of them succeeded, because the a) the technology wasn’t mature, and b) the whole enterprise wasn’t cost effective.

When Did America Turn Mean?

I would say it happened when Donald Trump entered the political scene in 2015 and wasn’t immediately laughed off the stage.

I remember calling my mother in disbelief and asking her if there wasn’t an unwritten rule that a successful presidential candidate has to be a decent and honorable human being.  Sure, we elected Nixon (twice), but we didn’t know he was a criminal at the time.
