Hi Brian, I see where you're coming from. But I'd argue it's not that vital to push people forward on the larger solar farms. I'm confident they'll all get done, by the end of the year at least, since there's a finite set of them and they're highly visible. (We've gone from 138 to 538 solar farms

Thought I'd write a really quick summary of progress on the quarterly project: - As of last night we had a total of 67,475 installations (solar farms enclosing several groups of panels are treated as one installation. At the time of
