Terabase Energy has completed its first commercial project, installing 17 MW of the 225 MW required for the White Wing Ranch project in Arizona, using its Terafab construction automation platform.
The Terafab system enabled the project to achieve various milestones:
- Provided workers with shaded and cooled working conditions to allow for system operation in a desert environment
- Eliminated the manual lifting of heavy steel tubes and solar panels
- Increased labor productivity by 25% compared with manual installation
- Enabled 100% return of PV module packaging for reuse by the manufacturer.
The project was carried out in collaboration with developer Leeward Renewable Energy and EPC contractor RES.
“This milestone marks a pivotal moment in our mission to accelerate solar power plant deployment to meet the terawatt scale demands of the future,” says Matt Campbell, CEO of Terabase Energy.
“Our partnership with Leeward Renewable Energy and RES has not only validated the efficacy of the Terafab system but also laid the groundwork for future projects. Furthermore, the Terafab system was deployed alongside our Construct digital twin software for managing and monitoring solar power plant construction, demonstrating interoperability of our existing product offerings with physical field applications,” he adds.
“The benefits demonstrated by this project underscore the transformative potential of automation in advancing solar construction practices, enabling us to accelerate and de-risk our project pipeline,” adds Leeward’s Sam Mangrum. “As the renewable energy landscape continues to evolve, LRE is committed to embracing cutting-edge technologies and partnering with innovators like Terabase Energy.”

Incompetence? Not Really
Incompetence isn’t actually the issue with Trump.
Imagine for an instant that the president was paid $100 billion per year to run this country, and that he was given a $50 billion annual merit-based bonus if his key statistics were up that measured how well the country was doing in terms of the quality of Americans’ lives. Do you think he’d be starting useless and illegal wars that drive up consumer prices? Destroying the educational system and the environment?
Not for a millisecond.

The Trump Delusion
As shown here, there are (formerly credible) people who are telling us that Trump is restoring Americans’ trust in government.
Do they truly believe this?

When Truth No Longer Matters
One of the casualties of the post-truth era is that the statements of our “leaders” no longer are required to have any basis in fact. What Jim Jordan says here is a fine example.
When he says “better” here, is he referring to runaway inflation? Trump’s purposeless and illegal war with no end in sight? His blatant corruption and criminality? His having, quite successfully, divided the American people into groups that hate each other? The enrichment of billionaires at the expense of the working class? The carefully engineered collapse of the environment so as to favor his donors in fossil fuels? The demise of the U.S. educational system?
Please be clear.
