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.”

Historians point to Andrew Jackson, with his butchering of the Native Americans, to the presidents immediately before and after the U.S. Civil War, and to Warren Harding as the previous “worst presidents in our nation’s history.”
Having said that, regardless of what our country’s future turns out to be, it’s virtually impossible to imagine that Trump will not come out on the top of the list.
The meme here is a reminder that to call oneself a “conservative” used to mean something, other than the desire to conserve America’s racist and imperialistic heritage.
There have been conservatives all throughout U.S. history.
For some reason, our nation’s leaders at the turn of the 20th Century are probably the most notable, with TR and John Muir (national parks pioneer).
But skip ahead and you have those who have shaped environmental protection through science, advocacy, and media. Key figures include Jane Goodall (primatologist), David Attenborough (naturalist), Rachel Carson (author of Silent Spring), Steve Irwin (wildlife educator), climate advocate Bill McKibben, activist Naomi Klein, and Story of Stuff founder Annie Leonard.

The Constant Torrent of Disinformation Targeting Clean Transportation and Favoring Big Oil
Sadly, the world must deal with the cottage industry that has arisen to generation and publish malicious bullshit about electric transportation and clean energy more generally.
The efficiency of internal combustion engines is in the 20s, where the efficiency of charging batteries and discharging them through electric motors is in the high 80s. This is why we could replace every car and light-duty truck on Earth and with EV and experience an increased load on our grid of only about 14%.
