Southern Power is intending to expand its 29th solar project, the Millers Branch Solar Facility in Haskell County, Texas. 

The company says the Phase III expansion will account for an added 132 MW from the previous Phase I and Phase II expansion of 200 MW and 180 MW, respectively.

“This expansion of the Millers Branch Solar Facility represents the final phase of construction at the facility,” says Robin Boren, Southern Power president.

“The completion of this work will bring the facility’s total generating capacity to 512 MW, making Millers Branch our largest solar facility to date and significantly enhancing Southern Power’s ability to deliver clean energy on a larger scale. This project is just the latest testament of our longstanding commitment to building the future of energy and providing for the renewable energy needs of our customers and communities.”

The company will continue to lead the development and construction of all phases of the project Phase III is expected to achieve commercial operation in 2026. It signed PPAs with Synopsys and Keysight Technologies for environmental attributes, such as RECs, produced under their respective shares of the facility.

Southern Power is a subsidiary of Southern Company.

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?
