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.”

Here’s Lucy Biggers, social media powerhouse, explaining how solar and wind energy actually aren’t free, because they require materials that need to be mined from the Earth.

Yes, Lucy.  I think most of us already knew that.

It’s hard for me to understand how a person with zero training in science has any relevance to what climate scientists are telling us. If I want a good recipe for carrot soup, I don’t ask a baseball coach or an auto mechanic.

They call this woman an “influencer.” What type of idiot does she influence?

Are We that Dumb?

Yes, part of this is stupidity.  But a larger part is that people who still support Trump at this point are desperate to believe whatever comes out of his mouth, regardless of how nonsensical it may be.

I wish my mother were still here so I could see where she would stand.  She was extremely well-educated, and a voracious reader, but somehow remained a Fox News viewer until the end.  I just wonder if the last 15 months may have turned her around.
