OBAMA APPROVES 2 MORE SOLAR LOANS: $ 1 BILLION
WLS reporting..."Facing a Friday deadline, the Energy Department has approved two loan
guarantees worth more than $1billion for solar energy projects in
Nevada and Arizona." Because Solyndra wasn't enough.
"Energy Secretary Steven Chu said the
department has completed a $737 million loan guarantee to Tonopah Solar
Energy for a 110 megawatt solar tower in Nevada, and a $337 million
guarantee for Mesquite Solar 1 to develop a 150 megawatt solar plant in
Arizona." If Solar can't compete in Arizona and Nevada without taxpayer subsidies...where can it compete?
"The loans were approved under the same program that paid
for a $535 million loan to Solyndra Inc., a now-bankrupt solar panel
maker that has become a rallying cry for Republican critics of the Obama
administration's green energy program." Give us more Solyndra
"The latest loan program,
approved under the 2009 economic stimulus law, expires Friday. At least
seven projects worth about $5 billion are pending." ...More to come
UPDATE : SOLAR FIRM LINKED TO PELOSI CLAN
