Kendall Sustainable Infrastructure, AC Power and GreenSpark Solar have announced the commercial operation of a 7 MW community solar landfill project located in Fort Edward, N.Y., owned by KSI, developed by AC Power, and built by GreenSpark.
The project addresses Fort Edward’s strategic goals: increasing municipal revenues via a land lease and payment in lieu of taxes agreement, slashing energy bills for residents through community solar access, utilizing inoperable municipal land, and forwarding the state’s green agenda.
AC Power initially developed the project. GreenSpark Solar provided engineering, procurement and construction services, and Kendall Sustainable Infrastructure is the long-term owner and operator of the project.
The 58-acre site, operating as a landfill from 1969 to 1991, had long been a symbol of environmental burden. Post-closure, the site required extensive environmental management, including an impermeable landfill cap, a leachate collection system, and wetland cells to mitigate hazardous waste impacts.

Trump’s Bromance with Putin
It’s actually surprising that it took so long for Trump to favor Putin in Russia’s war with Ukraine.
Trump loves all the things that Putin stands for: brutality against dissidents, defying the law, war crimes, lies, and fascism.
If it were possible, Trump would enjoy the same absolute power that Putin has, and Kim Jong Un has in North Korea.

When it Comes to Atrocities, Timing Is Everything
To his credit, Trump is astute when it comes to the timing of his atrocities. Had he abandoned Ukraine in favor of Putin’s Russia too early, the American people would have been outraged.
Now, after Iran, detention centers, gas prices, farm failures, killing clean energy, years of support for white nationalism, gutting U.S. education, and so forth, Trump’s backing Russia seems perfectly normal.
