Huge PV project in Arizona

We already have 7k acres total … and passing other counties I run up on solar farms too … they are just low profile compared to the 2 wind farms I passed today … There are +/- 125 solar plants in Texas

Today Texas generated 18,000 MW of solar power at peak and 16,000 MW of wind power. Tomorrow Texas will generate over 42,000 MW with solar and wind combined. Fort Collins, CO generated 20 MW of solar power. Texas isn't here to mess around.
 
Unfortunate that there's no price listed and no mention of whether it's getting REC's or some other financing scheme. At least Arizona has lots of otherwise unused land.
 
I think its a good idea, but not on BLS land. If - or should I say when - it goes belly up, the taxpayer is left holding the bag

They should go buy their own land. Then do it. Clearly its a for profit enterprise.

Another example of corporate welfare.

Did you mean BLM?

This company is backed by Shell, so I don't think they'll go bankrupt. I get the comment about the corporate welfare, but, there are lots of drilling leases on public land as well. And cattle grazing, so forth.
