Octopus Energy has invested in solar farm developer Circal, with a target of creating 600 MW of new solar farms in the U.S. within the next five years, with a focus on Texas.
Octopus-backed, U.K.-based solar developer Zestec is also setting up shop in the U.S., to build solar panels for commercial and industrial businesses. It, too, is targeting the Texas market, as well as Massachusetts, New York and New Jersey.
The company says businesses like warehouses and logistics centers will be able to get solar panels installed by Zestec at no cost.
These latest deals were made on behalf of the Octopus Energy Development Partnership and Sky funds it manages.
“The U.S. continues to break its records with the amount of clean, cheap solar power it is building,” says Zoisa North-Bond, CEO of Octopus Energy Generation.
“We entered America’s renewables market just three months ago and have big ambitions to build even more green power. With these deals we’re helping power up the green energy revolution across the USA to create a cheaper, greener future.”
This deal comes three months after Octopus made its first renewables investments Stateside, with the acquisition of solar farms in Ohio and Pennsylvania.

Good question here at left.
To me, it depends.
If the person seems intelligent enough to be able to hold a thought in his head that opposes his current beliefs, I’d actively encourage the discussion. Otherwise, I’m out. No need to raising someone’s temper for no reason or gain.
To the jackass who sent me the meme here: What about the 5 million Americans who moved to Canada? What about the steady flow of Americans expatriating to Costa Rica, New Zealand, Australia, Iceland and Northern Europe?
My wife and I have two kids and a grandchild in the States, and we have a gaggle of medicos to address the various health conditions associated with aging. If that weren’t the case, I’d be writing this from Stockholm or Aukland.
I wouldn’t be looking for a “utopia,” just an escape from the frustration, anger, and sadness that I feel every day, as I watch the country I love deteriorate into authoritarianism.
It really is amazing that the wealthiest people on the planet are so indifferent to others’ well-being.
Instead of being remembered as the guy who eliminated world hunger, or stemmed global warming, you chose to make another $100 billion?
