Buttigieg in Nevada

2/21/20

On climate change, Buttigieg said that he wants to lean on solar power and geothermal resources in the West, including in states like Nevada, to further his overall goal of removing carbon from the country’s energy generation system. To that end, the midwestern mayor has proposed quadrupling funding for research and development on energy generation and storage.

“I’m especially enthusiastic about the job creation potential of Western solar energy generation,” Buttigieg said.
