LCG, September 15, 2025--Longroad Energy announced today the financial close of 1000 Mile Solar, its 300 MWac (400 MWdc) solar project in Yoakum County, Texas. Longroad Energy finalized a long-term offtake agreement with Meta late last year in the form of an Environmental Attributes Purchase Agreement, which includes a financial settlement arrangement for the entire energy output of 1000 Mile Solar.

LCG, September 12, 2025--Entergy announced yesterday that the Public Utility Commission of Texas (PUCT) approved Entergy Texas’ proposal to build two efficient natural gas-fired power plants to support the region’s rapid growth. The combined electric generating capacity of the two facilities, the Legend Power Station and the Lone Star Power Station, will add over 1,200 MW to the Southeast Texas power grid to support new customer demand, increase reliability and lower costs for all customers. Both facilities are scheduled to commence operations by mid-2028.

Long Island Getting Juice from 18 Fuel Cells
LCG, Nov. 1, 2001--Fuel cell maker Plug Power Inc. said yesterday that 18 of its proton exchange membrane generators have been fully installed at a Babylon, N.Y., substation owned by New York State's Long Island Power Authority and are supplying power to the local transmission grid.The 18 are part of a project that will eventually have 75 of the fuel cells hooked up, the company said. So far, 55 have been installed. The project is part of an initiative proposed by New York Gov. George Pataki as a way to promote new energy techniques and energy conservation projects.According to Plug Power, the fuel cells could produce as much as one million kilowatt-hours of electricity over the duration of the program, which is enough electricity to power about 100 average-sized homes.LIPA Chairman Richard M. Kessel said "Fuel cells are an environmentally friendly electric generating technology, and this project will help us develop a better understanding of how fuel cells can be integrated into our electric grid."A fuel cell is a device that converts the energy of a fuel such as hydrogen, natural gas, methanol or gasoline and an oxidant which can simply be air into useable electricity through an electrochemical process from which no particulate matter is produced.Locally, the fuel cells were well received. "The town of Babylon recognizes the need to look toward alternative fuel technologies as a way of supplying clean, efficient power for the future," said Babylon Town Councilman Steve Bellone.The program is being funded through LIPA's Clean Energy Initiative, a five-year, $170 million program designed, in part, to foster the development and application of clean energy technologies, such as fuel cells, solar, wind generation and geothermal systems, Plug Power said.
