European Energy switches on 148 MW of solar in Denmark
The Danish developer completed the 148 MW solar project, located in southern Denmark, ahead of schedule. The site is connected to the same grid point as the company's already-operational 175 MW solar asset.

Whenever I post something criticising the nasty little racist state of Israel, I get blocked by a handful of random accounts.

Your irregular reminder that Israel can be forced to obey international law, stop the genocide, and stop being racist just as soon as the USA, UK and Germany stops supporting, protecting and funding Israel.
