Las Vegas was entirely on clean energy alternative sources
Currently, all enterprises, buildings and infrastructure of Las Vegas – from state institutions to street lighting – energy comes exclusively from alternative sources.
"We can be proud of the fact that today Las Vegas is one of the few cities in the world, which provided electricity only by "green" sources," said mayor Carolyn Goodman (Carolyn Goodma) at the conference on Monday.This achievement was the result of nearly a decade way to the goal – complete transition to Las Vegas for the clean energy. This was achieved by partnering with housing and utilities company NV Energy. At the same time, in addition to all of the state enterprises fueled by renewable energy, there are many residential and commercial buildings where electricity comes from traditional sources.
To report on the achieved result, the city administration was able after the commissioning of a large solar power Boulder Solar 1, built on the southeastern edge of Nevada.
Boulder Solar 1, in combination with other local sources of clean energy such as geothermal installation and solar panels on many roofs all over Las Vegas, will now provide 100 percent of municipal facilities of the city.
The transition to renewable energy sources started in 2008 and since then began to save the city about $5 million, and during this time has managed to reduce energy consumption by approximately 30%.
Now Las Vegas is the largest city in the United States, supplied only by renewable energy sources – will help to transfer the successful experience to other cities that also aspire to a no carbon future. published
