Roof panels and solar carports to be installed at 16 apartment communities in Dallas and Tarrant counties, comprising 3,600 apartment units
DALLAS , April 21, 2022 /PRNewswire/ -- Granite Redevelopment Properties, LP, a real estate investment and redevelopment company that focuses on the restoration and stabilization of multifamily properties, has enlisted The Solar Company to complete the largest multifamily solar panel installation project in the U.S. to date. At 16 of Granite's apartment communities in Dallas and Tarrant counties, the company is installing solar panels to generate electricity and offset energy costs at its Class B and C communities, comprising more than 3,600 units. Additionally, solar carports – parking spots with solar panel roofs – at nine properties will provide protection from the elements for 2,000 parking spaces while generating power.
"When we ran the numbers for overall project returns, we were sold and wanted to go all in. Not only is it a responsible decision from an environmental standpoint, it also makes tremendous financial sense and adds millions of dollars to the overall value of our portfolio," said Tim Gillean , President at Granite Redevelopment Properties, LP.
The Solar Company designed and installed the 15-megawatt, 40,000-panel system to maximize sun exposure, allowing the apartment communities to meet their energy needs as well as protecting costs associated with Texas' rapidly-rising utility rates. Expected project completion is July 2022 .
"Granite is setting a trend for owners of Class B and C apartments – and potentially the entire multifamily industry. By removing one of the biggest expenses for many landlords with rooftop solar panels and solar carports, the math is hard to argue with," said Travis Wildeman , CEO of The Solar Company.
By partnering with The Solar Company, Granite is able to take full advantage of federal tax credits and additional incentives available to them. The exact terms of the deal are undisclosed.

Fighting biodiversity loss and climate change starts with protecting nature. That includes ensuring that our cities and infrastructure allow animals and plants to thrive, instead of cutting them off from habitat. No one wants to see wildlife unable to cross a highway to get to a wetland, or migrating birds with no trees to rest in along their flight. Ecological corridors are integral to effective nature protection because they support the movement of species between conserved areas, allowing the

The ongoing game of footsie between billionaire tech mogul Elon Musk and social media platform Twitter reached a new stage April 22, as Musk began major steps towards buying the company.

Nio (NYSE: NIO) stock plunged this week and had fallen 12.4% in five days as of 2 p.m. ET Friday, according to data provided by S&P Global Market Intelligence. There weren't many updates from Nio this week, but the few that there were could have driven shares of the electric vehicle (EV) manufacturer higher, if not for concerning news from China. Nio shares took a deep dive last week after the company said it had suspended operations in China to adhere to the COVID-19 lockdown rules.
Meta Chief Operating Officer Sheryl Sandberg is now facing "internal scrutiny" at the company after pressuring U.K. tabloid the Daily Mail to kill a story about her former boyfriend, Activision Blizzard CEO Bobby Kotick. The revelations come in an explosive new report from the Wall Street Journal detailing a coordinated campaign to discourage the tabloid from publishing the story, pulling resources from both Activision Blizzard and Meta. In spite of denying that he had knowledge of disturbing allegations of employee misconduct, including alleged rape, Kotick apparently knew about many of those incidents — a fact he concealed from the company's board.
Irrational exuberance is alive and well on Wall Street, according to a valuation model proposed by former Federal Reserve Chairman Alan Greenspan. The story of how Greenspan came to use the phrase “irrational exuberance” is well-known and widely repeated: He first used it in a December 1996 speech, after listening to Yale University professor Robert Shiller give a lecture on the subject. Shiller reportedly based his comments on the Cyclically-Adjusted Price/Earnings ratio, or CAPE.

It is the biggest acquisition financing ever put forward for one person. Elon Musk is doing it his way.

If you’re relatively new to investing, and you think 2022 has been a year from hell, imagine being in the stock market for over 40 years. That would’ve put you through the Great Financial Crisis in 2008-2009, the dot-com crash in 2000, the crash of 1987, and the savings and loan debacle of the 1980s — besides the pandemic bear.
