Sweden: Danish solar company Nordic Solar A/S has announced it has started the construction of the 92 MWp Hultsfred solar park in Sweden
The PV power plant is expected to be connected to the grid at the end of 2025 and to generate 100 GWh of power per year
The project will be connected to the grid via a new large transformer substation located nearby
of which E.ON Sweden broke ground with the help of Nordic Solar at the end of April
The substation will connect several solar park projects totalling nearly 200 MWp
thus making it the largest connection of solar power to the electricity grid in Sweden so far
Nordic Solar is already building the 22-MWp Lindesberg solar park in Sweden and now has 114 MWp under construction in the country
out of its Swedish development portfolio of more than 600 MWp
The portfolio is made up of both own project development and projects in partnership with Swedish solar developer Helios Nordic Energy AB
Xcel Energy will build a 280-km transmission line linking clean energy from southwest Minnesota to over 1 million homes across the Upper Midwest
includes new and upgraded substations to boost power supply and reliability across southern Peru

Neoen and Alight have started building the 100 MW Hultsfred solar farm in Sweden
which will purportedly be the country’s largest solar installation upon completion
Neoen, a French-based independent power producer (IPP), and Alight, a Sweden-based solar developer and IPP, said this morning that they have started construction on their jointly developed and owned 100 MW Hultsfred solar PV project in Småland, Sweden
The companies said in a press release that Bouygues Energies & Services and Solkompaniet will lead the engineering
and construction (EPC) contract for the Nordic project
The project will feature low-carbon PV panels surrounding the Hultsfred airport runway
with the CEO of E.ON Energidistribution noting its significance for southern Sweden's electricity supply
The developers aim to make the project operational by 2025
with 95% of the energy sold to H&M Group through a long-term power purchase agreement
supporting the retailer's renewable energy goals
The specific use of the energy remains unspecified
In September, Alight said that another project would soon begin construction in the Nordic region – a 100 MW ground-mounted solar park in Eurajok
Sweden recorded 2,606 MW of solar PV installed capacity at the end of last year
according to the most recent figures published by the International Renewable Energy Agency (IRENA)

Mumford & Sons were forced to cancel two festival appearances over the weekend
The group had been slated to appear at the Northside Festival in Denmark on Friday
June 15 and the Hultsfred Festival in Sweden on Saturday
the band explained that Marcus Mumford broke his hand and would be unable to perform
The group has just announced some alternative plans for the weeks to come
Hello all – firstly the band are very sorry to have disappointed all fans who attended Hultsfred and Aarhus this weekend
as you know their appearances had to be cancelled due to Marcus breaking his hand
The band have been working every minute they can over this past week with two old tour friends
Harry Cargill on guitar and Chris Maas on drums
to rehearse a set that will be sonically as close as possible to what you expect from a Mumford & Sons gig
They will be going ahead with all other festivals this Summer and have confirmed that Hultsfred ticket buyers will be able to use the tickets to get into the Peace and Love Festival on 28th June (see www.mumfordandsons.com for details)
Denmark – we haven’t forgotten you and we will try and make it up to you as soon as we can
Thanks for being patient with us and see you this Summer

Brown starts a verse while his bandmates are still on the chorus
Squire's legendary guitar also sounds clunky and heavy

A recreation of a sound that was always inconsistent anyway
B-side Standing Here (from 1989)gently warms the heart

and starts to joke with the Swedes ("I said: 'Tack [thank you]!' I can't help it!")

Waterfall cascades; Brown hits every single note perfectly

Earlier this week, the cause of MF DOOM's death was revealed. His wife also shared her concerns over the care he was given, and now the Leeds hospital has issued an apology.
MF DOOM whose real name was Dumile Daniel Thompson, died in October 2020 at Leeds’ St James Hospital at the age of 49. At the time of his passing, no details had been shared.
Jasmine Dumile, the wife of MF DOOM, has now revealed that her late husband passed away from a rare and severe reaction to blood pressure medication, due to a condition known as angiodema. She added that Dumile was prescribed angiotensin-converting-enzyme (ACE) inhibitors to treat his high blood pressure, and he developed a severe reaction after two doses, which left him hospitalised at St James' Hospital in Leeds.
The inquest heard that on 31 October Daniel had complained that he couldn't breathe and tried to get off his hospital trolley before he collapsed and suffered respiratory arrest.
View this post on Instagram A post shared by MF DOOM. ALL CAPS. (@mfdoom)
“I would like to offer our sincere condolences to Daniel’s family, friends and fans at this difficult time,” Hamish McLure, chief medical officer of the trust, said, as reported by The Guardian
“I apologise that the care he received was not to the standard we would expect
Following his sad death we undertook a serious incident investigation and the report has been shared with Daniel’s family."
assistant coroner Janine Wolstenholme confirmed that Dumile’s care plan was not complete and that doctors were given a “false reassurance” about his condition
who described the death as a “rare event,” said that when Dumile complained that the swelling in his throat
it should have triggered a request for a review at the hospital
“As a result we have put in place a number of actions and the wider learning from what happened is to be used as a teaching topic in a number of different clinical specialities," McLure continued
"We also support the coroner’s recommendation for clearer national guidance and awareness in this area.”

“We have a combination of people who travel here and a faithful regional audience
but the regional audience is definitely a requirement for Storsjöyran,” says Lars Sillrén
began in the early 1960’s as a way for the people of Jämtland to show the rest of Sweden that although their particular region is sparsely populated
its people has the zest and courage to create a festival of international size and standard
Today many classic festivals around Sweden are suffering from competition
regional audience may undermine festivals like those in Hultsfred and Arvika
Today there are some 130 festivals around Sweden
Among those playing at Storsjöyran this year are: The Ark
Rock legend Roky Erickson is visiting from the U.S
Iggy Pop and Pet Shop Boys have played the festival
Storsjöyran takes place in Östersund July 28-30
