What factors have contributed to poor power output in Nevada Geothermal Power? Which critical variables is Nevada Geothermal Power facing? What ethical considerations has Nevada Geothermal put in place? What are the significance, scope, magnitude and feasibility of finding a solution for the problems facing Nevada geothermal Power? The Hypothesis Hypothesis 1 The hypothesis is to find out the reasons for financial problems in Nevada Geothermal. The company has received federal loans to support its operations in this crisis. In 2011, they received sixty six million dollars from the government and a further seventy nine million dollars as federal loans to support their operations. The company has not managed to make profit even after government support and it is still fighting to remain afloat. There is a chance that the company operations may stall according to financial statements released by the company’s auditor. The available money is not sufficient to boost production of power and this has affected the company finances. It has been difficult for the company to raise funds to support operations (Agency Group, 0, n.d). Hypothesis 2 Nevada Geothermal power faces a decrease in production of electricity. The company has the potential to produce 45 megawatts of electricity but with the recent problems, only 27 megawatts are produced. If the production process is low, then the supply is poor, which can cause losses for the company. The company resulted in drilling of new wells in other locations and...
