Center For Innovation Testing And Evaluation
The Center, officially known as The Center for Innovation, Testing and Evaluation, is a proposed facility designed to test new technologies, particularly renewable natural energy. It was originally to have been located on about 15 square miles near the town of Hobbs in Lea County, New Mexico it was to have been a city with no permanent population. Due to the lack of people, The Center was described as a ghost town, since it will not have permanent residents occupying the facilities located on site. Construction was scheduled to start in June 2012, but was cancelled in July 2012. Pegasus Global Holdings' decision to build the city arose from their own testing needs. The project appeared to be temporarily halted in 2013, however a new report in May 2015 reported that Pegasus was resuming planning and building efforts for the project. Pegasus plans for the facility to begin its first operations as early as 2018. One of the aimed goals and purposes of the facility besides the dev ...

Renewable Energy
Renewable energy is energy that is collected from renewable resources that are naturally replenished on a human timescale. It includes sources such as sunlight, wind, the movement of water, and geothermal heat. Although most renewable energy sources are sustainable, some are not. For example, some biomass sources are considered unsustainable at current rates of exploitation. Renewable energy often provides energy for electricity generation to a grid, air and water heating/cooling, and stand-alone power systems. Renewable energy technology projects are typically large-scale, but they are also suited to rural and remote areas and developing countries, where energy is often crucial in human development. Renewable energy is often deployed together with further electrification, which has several benefits: electricity can move heat or objects efficiently, and is clean at the point of consumption. In addition, electrification with renewable energy is more efficient and therefore ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |
