Solar+batteries is just going to win.
Solar is comparatively cheap. It's the easiest for power companies to deploy (~1 year vs. 5-10 years for conventional power plants). It's inexpensive to maintain. It's environmentally beneficial. And it can add value to farms by providing shade.
It's a winner

Beyond the appalling description of ICE holding cells, this ruling also catalogs ICE'S brazen defiance and contempt for the judge's orders. It's stunning and would cry out for congressional inquiry, if we had a Congress.
1/ A Trump-appointed federal judge, Gary R. Brown, ordered the immediate release on bail of a noncitizen and directed the government to show cause why it should not be held in contempt over ICE’s repeated failures to follow court orders.
