☆ Opinion | Venezuela’s Election Gives a Boost to the Autocrats
  + stars: | 2024-07-29 | by ( Michael Albertus | ) www.nytimes.com   time to read: +2 min
In what appears to be a deeply unfair election riddled with irregularities, Venezuelan’s authoritarian president, Nicolás Maduro, seems to have survived once again. The election was a crucial test of the durability of the new brand of authoritarianism gripping the Americas — and it has proved that the movement may not fade away anytime soon. Guatemala had a close call last year, with the attorney general’s office attempting to prevent a peaceful transition of power. Venezuela’s election is a fulcrum moment for the Americas. Despite high turnout, there were numerous reports of voting irregularities, voter intimidation and problems at voting centers.

☆ Why oil majors Shell and BP are combining solar energy and agricultural production
  + stars: | 2023-11-14 | by ( Katie Brigham | ) www.cnbc.com   time to read: +6 min
Stoffels owns this land, but leases it to Lightsource BP, a major solar energy developer that's 50% owned by British oil major BP. An emerging industry called agrivoltaics combines solar energy production with agricultural activities such as sheep grazing, beekeeping and crop growing. Today, the U.S. has about five gigawatts of agrivoltaic projects, encompassing more than 35,000 acres across over 30 different states. Shell is also involved in the space through its 44% stake in solar developer Silicon Ranch. While most solar developers opt to lease land, Silicon Ranch buys it outright, often purchasing degraded farmland that's no longer in production.

☆ At 30%, Solar Panel Tax Credits Are at a High Point for Now
  + stars: | 2023-08-25 | by ( Ann Carrns | ) www.nytimes.com   time to read: +2 min
Some states offer their own tax incentives, and utilities may offer rebates for installing solar. In some cases, rebates may affect the size of the federal credit, so consult a tax professional for help calculating your potential benefit, Ms. Walker said. Some solar contractors also do roofs or work closely with roofing companies, so you may be able to economize by having them done at the same time, she said. Some solar contractors offer the option to lease the system rather than buy it, but in that case you won’t own it — so you don’t qualify for the tax credit, Ms. Walker said. Like any home-improvement project, solar installations may attract disreputable contractors, said Melanie McGovern, a spokeswoman for the International Association of Better Business Bureaus.
