That’s a lot of stalls! I also made a few calculations. The canopies at GF Texas have 9 by 4 = 36 solar panels. Assume each panel puts out 350 Watts. 350 * 36 = 12.6 kW. Each canopy covers 4 stalls, so 164 stalls divided by 4 = 41 canopies. 12.6 kW * 41

The 15 MW onshore wind turbine’s blades are the least of this news. The following is the big part of this story. Quote: “”The China Electricity Council said in its latest annual report that wind and solar would make up around 40% of the country’s installed power generation capacity by the end of 2024 –

Rosie Barnes *debunks* the myth that Electric Vehicles will crash the grid – she shows that EVs will charge during the daytime and power the grid during the dark. 1 min. YouTube video.
This poll was released today. It’s not necessarily impartial. I love to hear that 68% of US coastal residents support offshore wind farm construction. But there are NIMBYs that don’t want the turbines for a number of reasons, most of them unjustified. 68% of US coastal residents support offshore wind farms – here’s why
Stationary battery energy storage systems are a great way to reuse used EV batteries. Quote: “”The ReVolve battery energy storage product uses second-life Nissan Leaf electric vehicle (EV) battery packs coupled with patented cell-level control technology that combines an integrated battery management system (BMS) and inverter hardware solution.”” PV self-consumption rising as batteries cut grid
