This amount of renewable energy will displace approximately 313, 000 metric tons of carbon dioxide annually — the equivalent of taking about 60, 000 cars off the road.定于在2015年年底投入全面运行的莫阿帕南派尤特太阳能项目将为洛杉矶市the city of Los Angeles提供25年清洁再生能源足够满足93000多户人家的能源需求。这些可再生能源将可每年减少大约31.3万吨二氧化碳排放——相当于让大约6万辆机动车停驶。The tribe’s leadership requested technical assistance from the Department of Energy on this project, as well as smaller-scale solar projects that could offset the tribe’s high energy costs. Department officials also worked with the Moapa tribe and the Department of Agriculture on an on-site, off-grid solar project that will provide the energy needed to power the tribe’s roadside commercial plaza.印第安部落的领袖请向能源部Department of Energy提出技术援助请求并要求建立一些可以降低部落昂贵能源费用的较小型太阳能项目。能源部还与莫阿帕部落和农业部Department of Agriculture联手开展一个设在当地、不并入电网的太阳能项目为部落的公路沿线商业服务区提供电力。Working with tribes on projects helps meet two U.S. policy goals. First, the Obama administration is committed to working to strengthen tribal economies through the development of water, energy and infrastructure projects on tribal lands. In addition, solar and other renewable energy sources feature prominently in the administration’s comprehensive approach to energy security and to combating global climate change.与印第安部落开展的这些项目有助于实现美国两项政策目标。第一欧巴马政府致力于通过在部落土地上开展水、能源和基础建设项目加强部落经济。另外太阳能和其他可再生能源在本届政府全方位推进能源安全和应对全球气候变化的努力中占有突出位置。
