☀️ In Melrose Park, IL, a 1.62 MW community solar project is turning warehouse space into clean electricity for 200+ homes, with subscribers saving 10–20%. No rooftop ownership required. Now that's smart land use! 🌎 #CommunitySolar www.solarpowerworldonline.com/2026/05/summ...

🚛 The best hedge against the next oil shock? Stop buying diesel. Electric trucks turn volatile fuel costs into more predictable electricity expenses. Energy independence isn't just national security. It's smart business. #ElectricTrucks #EnergySecurity www.forbes.com/sites/margoo...?

The Only Real Hedge Against Diesel Shock Is An Electric Truck
Record diesel prices from the Iran war show the US needs electric trucks; China and Europe surge ahead while US rollbacks stall adoption—California and Tesla push ahead.

The project is expected to generate enough electricity annually to offset the power use of both Magic Mountain and neighboring Hurricane Harbor Los Angeles. Shade for cars. Solar generation. Battery storage. EV charging. One project, multiple benefits. #Solar #CleanEnergy electrek.co/2026/10/05/s...

☀️ Solar can produce about 23× more usable energy per acre than biofuels. Same land. Far more energy. That’s a pretty remarkable example of what technological efficiency can do. And the panels don’t need to be replanted every year! #Solar #CleanEnergy ourworldindata.org/biofuel-land...

☀️ Texas — America’s oil capital — is now also a solar powerhouse. One farmer featured by the BBC earns $200,000 a year leasing part of his land for solar while continuing to farm the rest. Sometimes the energy transition is simply economics at work. #SolarEnergy #Texas bbc.com/news/article...

This is new to the U.S. and I believe its a different kind of electric motor and battery in the middle of the train. It will charge when it gets to its destination and overnight. Definitely the goal is to replace expensive and dirty diesel.

Could America’s Parking Lots Supply 20% of Our Electricity? Imagine turning America’s parking lots into energy assets. Add batteries, wind turbines, EV charging, and shade. France has already made this mandatory. #Solar #CleanEnergy time.com/6239651/sola...
