The taxpayers may be on the hook for yet another one;

"A geothermal energy company with a $98.5 million loan guarantee from the Obama administration for an alternative energy project in Nevada — which received hearty endorsements from Energy Secretary Steven Chu and Senate Majority Leader Harry Reid — faces financial problems, and the company’s auditors have questioned whether it can stay in business.

Much like Solyndra LLC, a California solar-panel manufacturer with a $535 million federal loan guarantee that went bankrupt, Nevada Geothermal Power (NGP) has incurred $98 million in net losses over the past several years, has substantial debts and does not generate enough cash from its current operations after debt-service costs, an internal audit said."

meh ... what's new? Another Government failed venture capital failure. Another failure to place on the wall of ineptitude.

How many of these will it take for the majority of the people to see a pattern?

The majority have no clue.

They claim they are still making payments on the Fed loan. For now.

Why don't they just raise their rates to $1.00/kwh and have Obama buy the power for the nearest military bases as part of his green agenda? They make a nice profit and survive and the deficit goes up and "Obama The Deficit Killer" looks the other way.

That's much nicer than saying you can't swing a dead .....

I have one question...

How much money did they give Obama to get elected? Then you will know why they got our money.

Guess we should have quit when that first rocket blew up on the pad.
Or the second. Or third, or fourth, or fifth...

We never did make a profit by going to the moon, did we?
