SolarBank plans to develop a 7 MW ground-mount solar power project, known as the Stauffer project, on a site located in Lancaster County, Pa. 

This project is in addition to the recently announced 13.8 MW project, both of which are part of a portfolio expected to total 24.8 MW.

In March, the Pennsylvania House of Representatives passed House Bill 1842, enabling the potential development of community solar projects in the state. The bill is currently under review by the state senate.

The company says the proposed community solar project would be one of the first of its kind in Pennsylvania.

“Community solar projects enable the benefits of renewable energy to proliferate throughout communities in North America,” says SolarBank CEO, Dr. Richard Lu.

“Community members can subscribe to a shared solar power source and contribute to building a sustainable future without having to install their own panels. We are excited for the next steps in developing the Stauffer project, which would be a significant milestone in SolarBank’s community solar portfolio, in addition to being a part of Pennsylvania’s historic move toward a cleaner future.”

The company has secured a lease over the project site and will continue to work to complete the next steps in permitting, interconnection and securing the necessary financing for construction of the project. Development of the project as community solar will be subject to the final approval of House Bill 1842.

Energy generated by a community solar project feeds directly into the local electricity grid.

Minnesota is home to intelligent, well-educated people whose approval of Trump is lower than that of toenail fungus.

If Lindell wants to lead a state, he needs to choose one at least 800 miles away. Oklahoma?

He may also want to consider that Trump is easily the most detested person in this nation.

The Existence of God

I wouldn’t say that the burden of proof lies on religion.  No one knows how the universe got here.

The Big Bang was an event in which there was no chaos, no “entropy,” as we say in thermodynamics.  How did all this orderliness get there 13.87 billion years ago? No one knows. This is an issue in cosmology which is quite likely to outlast human civilization on this planet.

I’m an atheist for a few reasons, one of which is that saying that God created the universe doesn’t get us any closer to an understanding of the cosmos, if only because it raises the question: Who made God?

More to the point, there are hundreds of moral reasons to disbelieve in God.  Each year, 9 million children will die unbaptized on this planet before their fifth birthdays.  In the bible, we learn that God punishes them all with an eternity of torture in hell.  To what sort of weirdo does this make sense?

At left we have another good reminder that our cognitive biases can render us incapable of thinking critically.

Some of us believe anything we want to.
