  • Total SA (NYSE:TOT) and China National Petroleum Corp. have finalized a deal to develop oil and gas assets in Tajikstan with Tethys Petroleum (TSX:TPL). China has been foaming at the mouth for years to gain access to these resources, and this latest deal will make it happen. The first phase of exploration is expected to run between $80 million and $100 million. The reserves in Tajikstan could supply China with all its necessary natural gas for more than two decades.
  • SolarCity (NASDAQ:SCTY) has noted in a regulatory filing that it’s expecting to deploy 270 megawatts in 2013. This is up from 250 MW that was reported in January.
