More Maps = More Confidence in Renewables’ Locations

There are already a handful of maps designating areas of renewable energy for the state of Nevada. The latest comes from the Western Governors Association. More are expected from state legislation. And of course, all the existing and future maps will be a bit different.

Charles Benjamin, who oversees Nevada activities for Western Resource Advocates, suggests more maps are better:

If you do get three different processes all identifying the same areas, that gives you confidence. It’s like getting a second or a third opinion.

I just wonder if the maps/data/results are in a form that they can be easily compared and integrated. I’m fearing no, but hope I’m wrong!
