INVL Renewable Energy Fund I company REFI Sun aims to raise up to EUR 15 million in public bond offering
The bonds have a maturity of 2.5 years. The fixed interest rate on the debt securities will be set in the range of 7.5% to 8.5% and announced at completion of the offering. Interest will be paid to investors quarterly. The INVL Renewable Energy Fund I will provide guarantees to all holders of the REFI Sun bonds.

REFI Sun seeks to raise up to EUR 15 million in a public offer in Lithuania, Latvia, and Estonia under a base prospectus for EUR 25 million bond programme approved by the Bank of Lithuania. The minimum investment amount is EUR 1,000.

Nissan supplier exploring wind turbine plan
A key supplier to car maker Nissan is exploring plans for a new wind turbine to help reduce carbon emissions. Unipres (UK) Ltd, an automotive manufacturing company, wants to install a 492ft (150m) tip wind turbine at its Sunderland plant on Cherry Blossom Way, in Washington. The firm, which supplies press-formed vehicle parts to the Nissan plant in Washington, said the wind turbine could generate up to 5MW. An application to Sunderland City Council planning officials has requested a "scoping opinion" on the plans to look at environmental impacts. Site plans show the wind turbine proposed for a parcel of land near the Unipres boundary with the Nissan plant site, which already has wind turbines. It was noted the "energy generated would be distributed directly to the warehouse and would function to meet the energy needs of the facility". Applicants said the proposed development would "aim to reduce the carbon emissions from the facility" and would be "largely self-sustainable", with any "excess energy" potentially being exported back to the national grid. 'Employment benefits' Following the period of operation, estimated at 25 years, the applicant is also expected to "decommission" the wind turbine "in line with best practice industry guidance". The supporting environmental impact scoping report adds: "The proposed development would have economic and employment benefits in the form of contracting opportunities for local and regional contractors both for construction activities themselves and throughout the supply chain." A decision on the screening opinion request will be made by the council following a consultation exercise, with a decision expected in coming months.

Homeowner searches for legal answers after power-hungry HOA makes questionable decision: 'The law is pretty clear'
Homeowner searches for legal answers after power-hungry HOA makes questionable decision: 'The law is pretty clear' A homeowner took to Reddit for advice after their homeowners association denied their request to install solar panels on their house. The original poster shared that their HOA would not allow them to install a solar system because the panels would be on the front of the house and visible to passersby. The OP was concerned about changing the configuration of the proposed panels because it would cut their energy production by about 25%. Many HOAs try to prevent homeowners from installing solar panels on their properties for aesthetic reasons. But the OP linked to the specific Florida statute that blocks HOAs or other entities from taking action that would obstruct or reduce the efficiency of homeowners' renewable energy systems. That law indicates the homeowner is well within their rights to go ahead with a solar panel installation. It is the ultimate home energy hack and can reduce utility bills to nearly or sometimes even beyond $0, with the utility supplier paying some customers for excess energy sent back to the grid. EnergySage is one of the best companies helping homeowners shopping for solar panels to get the most bang for their buck. In fact, the average person can get up to $10,000 in incentives for purchase and installation. However, it's important to act fast, as Congress voted to end the solar tax credit by the end of the year. As projects take about 12 weeks from commissioning to completion, it's important to start as soon as possible if you want to guarantee yourself the thousands in benefits before it's too late. EnergySage's free tools can provide quick solar installation estimates and help homeowners compare quotes, like comparison shopping for insurance or travel plans. Its free mapping tool shows the average cost of solar panels in each state. Commenters wanted more information about the situation, asking about the orientation of the house and the placement of the panels. "Is the front 'south facing'?" asked one user who read that the panels are on the front of the OP's home. "If it's [east, north, or west] facing they may have more grounds to complain." The commenter cited the Florida statute that the OP had linked. The OP responded to confirm that the house faces south. They also mentioned that they had consulted a lawyer. "The lawyer I talked to said they are 100% in the wrong and can't deny because it would affect how the system works," replied the homeowner. "And the law is pretty clear on it so he says." Which of these factors is the biggest obstacle preventing you from getting solar panels? The upfront cost The way they look Not sure where to start No concerns here!

Aldi fits solar panels at more County Durham stores in £7.7m scheme
Aldi is rolling out solar panels across more County Durham stores as part of a £7.7 million investment in renewable energy. Stores in the region will be among those to benefit from the supermarket's latest green upgrade, which forms part of Aldi's on-site renewable energy programme. The UK's fourth largest supermarket is installing advanced 144 kWp solar systems at 41 stores before the end of 2025 and a further 49 stores the following year. (Image: Aldi) Jonathan Neale, managing director of national real estate at Aldi UK, said: "By expanding the use of solar panels across our UK stores, we're making practical, long-term changes to how we power our operations, which will help us generate more of our energy on site from renewable sources. "By investing in our estate now, we're strengthening the resilience of our operations and helping ensure we can keep delivering great value for customers across Britain in a more sustainable way." In County Durham, solar panels have already been spotted at Aldi stores in Crook, Stockton and Spennymoor, with the Peterlee location also set to benefit. Each new solar installation is expected to generate around 100,000 kWh of electricity annually. The programme is part of Aldi's broader commitment to increasing its use of renewable energy and improving energy security across its sites.

The retailer has also made other sustainability improvements, including converting more than 30 per cent of its owned HGV fleet to hydrotreated vegetable oil (HVO) in September last year. Aldi has also introduced chiller doors in its stores, reducing energy consumption by around 20 per cent per site.
