In the wake of the Bundy Ranch standoff, Nevada’s public energy utility confirmed it has so many renewable-energy projects in the works that it has no need for the $5 billion solar-power project with the Chinese government and ENN Group that was withdrawn last year.

Fay Andersen, spokeswoman for NV Energy, told WND the state currently has 39 producing renewable energy projects, with an additional project under construction and another in the development phase.

“Nevada has one of the highest Renewable Portfolio Standards in the country, determined as a percent of retail energy sales, and requiring the company to achieve 25 percent of its power from renewable sources by 2025,” she explained to WND.

She said NV Energy has exceeded its renewable energy requirement of 18 percent for 2013-14, with 20.3 percent in southern Nevada in 2013 and 34.7 percent in northern Nevada.

39 projects...how much solar? If the one in So Nevada that gets to 1000 degrees daily is an example and burns birds that fly over killing them, it won’t be green energy long... it will be brown energy as the earth is scorched!

It is not Jute that is needed, it is Hemp and lots of it but not the smoking grade.

Reid further suggested to Southern California Edison that industrial plants could sell sulfur dioxide credits

and just how is Dingy Harry involved in the sulfer dioxide 'credits' business? and who's making money on the insider trading?

great article. I hope Corsi goes deeper.
