Powering up Delaware: Nautilus Solar Energy and TurningPoint Energy Launch One of the First Solar Farms in Major Renewable Energy Portfolio
Construction was completed in early 2025 and is expected to begin delivering clean, renewable energy to customers within the Delmarva Power service territory in the next few months. This project is part of Delaware's Community Energy Facility Program that officially launched in April 2022 and signed into law via Senate Bill 2 (SB 2). This bill increased project size limits to 4 MWac and requires at least 15% of each project's capacity to serve low-income customers.
"The opening of this community solar farm represents Nautilus's entrance in Delaware and our continued expansion of community solar across the United States," said Eric LaMora, Vice President of Community Solar at Nautilus. "TPE is a valued partner with Nautilus in our mission to make clean, affordable energy available to everyone, including low-income households and small businesses."
"Today, we celebrate a milestone in our clean energy journey in Delaware — with the inaugural project that is part of Delaware's Community Energy Facility Program. This will be the first project to reach commercial operation as part of our $100M commitment to invest in the First State," said Salar Naini, President of TPE.
This solar project will provide electric bill savings to residents, and other organizations that subscribe as part of the Community Energy Facility Program. Over its lifetime, this project is expected to generate approximately eight million kilowatt-hours annually, contributing to Delaware's goal of sourcing 40% of its electricity from renewable energy by 2035.
"The use of solar and other renewable forms of energy is essential to protecting our life-sustaining natural world and its resources," said Sen. Stephanie Hansen. "We know that rising energy costs have been a major financial burden for countless Delaware families. Investing in additional, diverse, clean energy sources are not only a win for the environment, but a win in our ongoing effort to lower costs for our constituents and provide energy reliability."
One of the local groups benefiting from the solar project is Springboard Delaware, a non-profit founded in 2020 to create innovative, affordable housing solutions that address the root causes of homelessness and promote long-term stability, health equity and upward mobility. Judson Malone, Co-Founder and Executive Director, said, "At Springboard Delaware, we believe housing stability and environmental sustainability go hand-in-hand. Being a beneficiary of this community solar project means we can lower our energy costs while advancing our mission to create safe, dignified housing for our most vulnerable neighbors. We're proud to be part of a project that reflects both economic and environmental justice."
TPE and its partners are committed to making meaningful charitable community investments in every community where their solar projects are developed, including contributions to organizations like Springboard Delaware. These investments are designed to create lasting social value by supporting local nonprofits, educational initiatives and essential services. As part of this commitment, TPE has already contributed $100,000 toward its pledged $120,000 in community donations for this portfolio. With Nautilus matching the pledge, the total planned community investment will reach $240,000 upon completion of the portfolio's construction.

2025 Is Turning Into A Recall Disaster For Ford
2025 Is Turning Into A Recall Disaster For Ford originally appeared on Autoblog. Almost three years ago, Ford CEO Jim Farley said that fixing quality was his top priority for the Blue Oval. However, Farley also said at the time that doing so would 'take several years,' and that appears to be an accurate assessment when looking at Ford's shockingly high number of recalls so far this year. In an analysis done by Carscoops, Ford has issued 81 recalls in 2025 so far. That's more than the entire number of recalls (67) for the brand in 2024, when Ford was only behind Stellantis (72) for total recalls. At this rate, Ford will hit over 150 recalls by the time the year is done. Those 81 recalls have affected over four million vehicles, and Ford has issued a recall every 2.12 days so far in 2025, on average. For each recall, an average of over 50,000 vehicles are affected. Even worse, 80 of the 81 recalls this year required some kind of physical inspection or fix for the impacted vehicles, so the problems were such that they couldn't be easily resolved via an over-the-air update. Here's just a few of the recalls issued by Ford in 2025: Rearview camera: 1.1 million vehicles affected Steering control issues: over 29,000 vehicles affected Braking failures: 2,345 vehicles affected Seat issues: over 300,000 vehicles affected This isn't an exhaustive list, and the combination of electronic, mechanical, and trim issues indicate that overall quality is a problem, not one specific aspect of Ford vehicles. Data from CarEdge supports this latest analysis, too; by the middle of May, Ford had racked up 51 recalls. The next closest brand was the VW Group, with 14, so it's not even close. The rearview camera recall is the biggest one for Ford so far in 2025. It affects everything from the Escape crossover to high-end models like the Lincoln Navigator and Nautilus. The camera display image could freeze or display a delayed image, which could result in the driver not spotting an immediate hazard. Electrical systems accounted for 17 unique recall campaigns. It's worth pointing out that 14 of Ford's recalls this year involved under 100 vehicles, so these were not as widespread. However, even if we exclude these 14 recalls, Ford is still having far more quality issues than any other can be issued at any time, and for vehicles of any age, so it's worth noting that Ford's current run of recalls are impacted by certain older models dating back to the 2020 model year. Looking at the latest J.D. Power 2025 Vehicle Dependability Study - which tracked the number of problems per brand for owners that have had their cars for three years - Ford doesn't fare as badly. It registered 208 problems per 100 vehicles, just below the industry average but above brands like Subaru, Nissan, Mercedes-Benz, and Jeep. Still, there is clearly a quality crisis at Ford, and even if not all Ford owners are left stranded at the side of the road, the recalls are disruptive to the overall ownership experience and some of them pose safety risks. We hoped that the brand would have made more progress since Farley's explicit admission that quality needed attention in 2022. 2025 Is Turning Into A Recall Disaster For Ford first appeared on Autoblog on Jun 23, 2025 This story was originally reported by Autoblog on Jun 23, 2025, where it first appeared.
