Solar production has begun at the Great Cove I and II solar facilities in central Pennsylvania, spread across Fulton and Franklin counties in central Pennsylvania, with a 220 MW capacity and comprised of more than 485,000 panels.
University of Pennsylvania will purchase all electricity produced at the facilities, stemming from a PPA the university signed in 2020 with Community Energy, since acquired by AES. Project construction began in 2022, with pre-panel construction occurring from April 2022 to May 2023. Panel installation took place from last May to December, with substation interconnection testing in November.
“I couldn’t be prouder that we’ve made such rapid, milestone progress toward carbon neutrality, not only for Penn but for the city of Philadelphia,” says UPenn’s J. Larry Jameson. “We’re taking on the greatest challenges of our time, and at the top of that list is climate change and sustainability.”

Do you think this will change American lives for the better? If so, how?
Rewriting the U.S. Constitution will take some work, as I’m sure you’re aware.
What does the most affluent state in America need in its next governor? I’m pretty sure it not a Trump supporter.
Yes, we have traffic, which we hate. But that’s because everybody and his dog wants to be here for our economic opportunities and our natural beauty.
In general, we reject racism, ignorance, corruption, and environmental destruction.
I can’t swear that the content of the meme here is accurate; in fact, most affluent Scandinavians I run across admit that they pay higher taxes than Americans.
They claim that the attraction is that they aren’t forced to live among uneducated slobs where people are dying of treatable diseases with masses of impoverished people living on the streets.
Isn’t there something to be said for that?
