Ørsted has commenced operations at its 488 MW Mockingbird Solar Center in Lamar County, Texas, the company’s largest solar project to date.
The company has also completed a 953-acre land donation to The Nature Conservancy for conservation. This donation establishes the Smiley Meadow Preserve, a new protected area that conserves tallgrass prairie habitat.
“We are delighted to commission Ørsted’s largest solar project and deliver domestic and reliable energy to the Texas grid,” says Melissa Peterson, head of Onshore Development and Origination at Ørsted.
“We are very proud of this transformative project. In addition to progressing our goal of building out more American energy, we were able to form a meaningful partnership with The Nature Conservancy, advance our biodiversity commitment and preserve an important piece of Texas’ land and heritage for future generations.”
Ørsted worked with American companies for the project, such as First Solar for panel procurement panels, as well as local businesses, including Drake Construction and Pfifer Farms, in purchasing materials for construction of the project.

Consider the meme here, and then remember that the nine of the ten poorest states in the U.S. (Mississippi, Louisiana, West Virgina, Kentucky, Arkansas, Alabama, Oklahoma, Tennessee, and South Carolina) are all bright red.
How do they get away with stupidity like this?
Well, there’s the bottom of the state rankings for education:
- 46. Mississippi
- 47. Kentucky
- 48. Louisiana
- 49. Arkansas
- 50. West Virginia
Do you see any correlation?
Republican Operatives Are Tenacious as Messaging–And Truth Has No Bearing on It
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.
