Utah to Send Anaheim "Green Power"


No, this is not a trade in the NBA...

Anaheim seems determined to honor their word and the state mandate that 20% of their power be "green electricity" for households by the year 2012.
After a bit more testing is completed the Utah power plant will send Anaheim 11 megawatts of power beginning in 2009 from the Raser Power Plant, which boasts zero carbon emissions. A spokesman from Raser said that 95% of the equipment they use to make geothermal green power is from machinery we've had for many years. They run huge air conditioners backward...only 5% of what they use to obtain this green power is new technology.

A geothermal generator uses heat from underground hot water to produce electricity.

My only question is why can't we do this locally and not ship it in from another state?
