ThomasLloyd Climate Solutions has agreed to merge with a blank-check company in a deal that will allow the European-based clean energy developer to enter the booming US market for powering data centers. The combination with Roman DBDR Acquisition Corp. II is expected to raise more than $240 million and is set to close in the second half of this year, according to a statement reviewed by Bloomberg News. That includes an anticipated private investment in public equity, according to the statement, which didn’t include details on the PIPE. ThomasLloyd, which is valued at $850 million on an equity basis before the transaction, also has signed an agreement with B. Riley Principal Capital II for a $200 million equity line of credit. B. Riley Securities managed the 2024 initial public offering by the Roman DBDR special purpose acquisition company. ThomasLloyd has provided sustainable energy consulting, financing and development since 2003 with a focus in Asian markets. The company seeks to bring its expertise to the US where it aims to build renewable energy and energy-efficiency projects for data centers that need power quickly, Chief Executive Officer Michael Sieg said. “We believe the market opportunity at this point won’t get better,” Sieg said. The company is seeking to capitalize on one of the hottest sectors of the US economy. The rapid expansion of data centers has kicked off a race to find sufficient power supplies for facilities that can consume as much electricity as a midsize US city. Clean energy developers say they can help with a solution that is faster to deploy than traditional power sources.

Anarcho-Tyranny & The UK Grooming Gangs Scandal Authored by Lipton Matthews via The Mises Institute, I recently attended an event at the Prosperity Institute in the United Kingdom, and, as a foreigner listening to the discussion unfold, I found it both unsettling and clarifying. The panel addressed the grooming gang scandal, a subject that remains profoundly uncomfortable for Britain’s political and cultural establishment. What distinguished this event was its refusal to soften the reality of what occurred or to retreat into evasive language. The discussion did not merely revisit past failures; it exposed a deeper pattern in how British institutions exercise power. At the center of the panel was Fiona Goddard—a victim of grooming who spoke with calm precision. She described how the police betrayed her trust after she came forward with her story, only to discover that information she had shared in confidence had been passed back to members of the grooming gang. That institutional betrayal placed her at renewed risk and compounded the original abuse. She also recounted something even more disturbing. The men who groomed her told her explicitly that they targeted her because she was white and that their aim was to destroy white girls. The starkness of her testimony stripped away any remaining illusions about the ideological framing that has often surrounded these crimes. Listening to Fiona, what struck me was not only the brutality of what she endured, but the nature of the state’s response. Fiona explained that her claims were subjected to extraordinary scrutiny. She was examined by ten attorneys, her credibility tested repeatedly before her story was taken seriously . This stood in sharp contrast to the cultural climate of the #MeToo era, when allegations of harassment were often treated as self-validating. Men whose names appeared on the “Shitty Media Men” list were publicly ruined without due process or serious examination of the accusers. The disparity raises unco...
