Sol Systems has selected three solar projects, Bunker, Blackberry and Cornwell, under the Illinois Power Agency (IPA)’s Indexed REC procurement process. 

These projects, totaling 123.4 MW, will deliver 240,000 Renewable Energy Certificates (RECs) annually to Ameren Illinois Company, Commonwealth Edison and another local utility.

The IPA’s Indexed REC procurement program, stemming from the Illinois Climate and Equitable Jobs Act, promotes the location of projects in Energy Transition Community Grant Areas. These areas are targeted for economic development to support communities impacted by the closure or reduced operation of fossil fuel plants, as identified by the state’s Department of Commerce and Economic Opportunity.

“Sol Systems is proud of its extensive experience to date with over 25 solar projects under development or in operation in Illinois, serving customers such as Toyota Boshoku America and the University of Illinois Urbana-Champaign,” says Sol Systems’ Mark Brill.

“Additionally, Sol Systems has actively participated in the Illinois Power Agency’s Illinois Shines Program, previously the Adjustable Block Program, which is a part of the Illinois Power Agency’s initiatives to promote renewable energy. The new Bunker, Blackberry and Cornwell projects build on that experience, furthering our commitment to accelerating America’s clean energy future and investing in local communities.”

There really are threats to human civilization that seem to be mounting in intensity:

• World fascism.  (If it can happen in the U.S., it could conceivably happen anywhere.)

• Environmental collapse.

• Malicious use of AI.

• Pandemics, as misinformation on vaccinations spread and the frozen tundra melts, releasing pathogens never seen by humans.

• Nuclear war.

Addressing the point made at left, is there any scenario in which world governments agree to cooperate so as to stave off the end of an organized society here on Earth?  One supposes so, though it sounds far-fetched in today’s world in which the leaders of most of the 200+ sovereign nations are trying so desperately to cling to power.

Obviously, James Carville has been wrong before, but it appears that he’s onto something here.

An ever-increasing number of Americans are realizing that Trump is criminally insane, and is leading this nation to destruction.

The Economics of Climate Change Mitigation

It’s a pleasure to see that Dr. Brian Cox has people so popular, having joined the ranks for Neil DeGrasse Tyson, Bill Nye, and a few others.  This phenomenon of celebrity physicists if one of very few bright spots in our modern world.

I would qualify what he says at left as follows: the only people who hate the economics here are those invested in fossil fuels.  Clean energy and transportation are already huge industries, and they’re growing at an amazing pace–even in the face of heavy suppression by Big Oil and Donald Trump.
