The U.S. Department of Energy has awarded $1.37 million to four New Mexico-based tribes for “clean” energy projects. U.S. Energy Secretary Steven Chu who also advocated for more than $500 million in taxpayer loan guarantees to go to Solyndra just before the company filed for bankrupcy, announced yesterday that the New Mexico grants include: $347,090 to the Navajo Hopi Land Commission, $278,987 to Zia Pueblo, $301,113 for Jemez Pueblo, to complete preconstruction work on a four-megawatt solar facility, plus $146,775 and another $300,000 to the Navajo.
