Residents of Skye Canyon, Las Vegas, oppose a proposed lithium-ion battery storage facility due to safety concerns. Clearway Energy Groups project, planned near residential areas, has sparked fears of fires and health risks. Recent lithium battery incidents, like the Townsite Solar fire in Boulder City, have amplified these worries. Clearway Energy assures safety, citing Lithium Iron Phosphate batteries, modular design, and remote monitoring. However, residents like Rosalind Hayes advocate for relocation. Clearway Energy will present plans to the City of Las Vegas Planning Commission on January thirteenth.
