Solential Energy has activated its Fort Wayne, Ind., microgrid, which was designed, built and installed by the company and enables the city to self-generate power for its water and sewer utilities.
Last September, Solential installed a floating solar panel array comprising 12,000 solar panels atop the municipality’s water pollution control storage ponds. It supplies 40% of the energy necessary to power the Three Rivers Filtration Plant, the Water Pollution Control Plant and the Wet-Weather Pump Station.
The microgrid design integrates solar power with biogas generated from food waste and natural gas engines.
With the operational costs for these facilities totaling about $2.8 million in 2023, the company says, city officials project that the microgrid will generate $8 million in savings over the project’s lifetime.

There are many countries around the globe whose people have a deep and honest concern for the wellbeing of their planet and its civilization. As shown at left, Costa Rico is most certainly among them.
Perhaps you live in such a nation. I sure wish I could say that I did.
The United States has too many greedy billionaires and too many hateful idiots.
It was just 25 years ago that the whole world embraced the United States and shared our grief after 9/11.
We’ve taken all that kinship and discarded it as if it were a soiled paper towel.
