What’s the spin on Tri-State ?

From a friend in Craig Colorado:

“my understanding is that because of policies from the biden administration, tristate expected to be eligible for up to $2.2 billion for accelerating their carbon footprint reduction. based on that expected windfall, they obtained a loan of about $650 million to complete some projects that would qualify them for that $2.2 billion. with the arrival of trump, those $2.2 billion went away. so now tristate is stuck with the $650 million loan that they cannot repay. i have been told that their only solution is to declare bankruptcy. the new owner (which could be guzman electric) will not be obligated to the current closure requirements, and especially not if trump declares the national electric grid to be of national security status and sets out an executive order that no closures can proceed until a guaranteed replacement for the power is proven.”

Before I left NW Colorado I heard a German Co wanted to buy Tri-State and build a Solar Farm.

Also wondering what happened with the $650 million loan for improvements ?
