I-US Bureau of Land Management (BLM) ithe lolu hlelo lusondeza ngamabomu intuthuko eduze kwezintambo zokudlulisela noma ezindaweni eziphazamisekile ngaphambilini ukuze kugwenywe izindawo ezivikelekile, izinsiza ezibucayi zamasiko kanye nezindawo ezibalulekile zezilwane zasendle.

I-Bureau of Land Management (BLM) imemezele ukuthi izosebenza kanjani umgwaqo ohlongozwayo ukuthuthukiswa kwamandla elanga ezindaweni zomphakathi, eklanyelwe ukwandisa amaphrojekthi elanga ezindaweni zomphakathi.
Lokhu kukhululwa kuwuHlelo olubuyekeziwe lwe-Western Solar Plan, olwanyatheliswa okokuqala ngo-2012 futhi lwaklanyelwe ukuqondisa ukuthuthukiswa kwelanga elinomthwalo wemfanelo ezindaweni zomphakathi e-Arizona, California, Colorado, Nevada, New Mexico nase-Utah. Muva nje iye yanwetshwa ukuze ihlanganise i-Idaho, i-Montana, i-Oregon, iWashington ne-Wyoming. Izokwenza amahektha angaphezu kwezigidi ezingu-31 zezindawo zomphakathi ezitholakalayo ukuze kuthuthukiswe amandla elanga.
Ukukhishwa, manje okubizwa ngeSolar Programmatic Environmental Impact Statement (PEIS), kuza njengoba abaphathi bekhipha idatha entsha ebonisa izinqubo ezithuthukisiwe zezimvume. Inqubo yemvume yelanga ingenye yezingqinamba ezinkulu kakhulu ekuhanjisweni kwamaphrojekthi elanga e-US Ngasekuqaleni kwale nyanga, iKomidi leSenate Energy and Natural Resources livotele ukuqhubekisela phambili umsebenzi. Umthetho Wokushintshwa Kwezimvume Zamandla ka-2024, ingxenye yomthetho ehlukene kabili okuhloswe ngayo ukuthuthukisa izimvume zamaphrojekthi wengqalasizinda yamandla.
Uhlelo oluhlongozwayo lwe-Western Solar Plan luyisinyathelo esibheke emgomweni wokuzuza igridi kagesi ohlanzekile ngo-100% ngo-2035. Ngasekuqaleni kwalo nyaka, i-BLM. lidlule igoli wokuvumela amaphrojekthi kagesi ahlanzekile angaphezu kwama-25 GW ezindaweni zomphakathi, kanye noHlelo olusha lwe-Western Solar Plan luzosekela inqubekelaphambili eqhubekayo mayelana nezimvume ezinomthwalo wemfanelo.
“Uhlelo olusha lwe-Western Solar Plan luzosiza ukwakha ingqalasizinda yesimanje, ekwazi ukumelana nogesi edala umnotho oqinile wamandla ahlanzekile futhi ivikele imiphakathi yethu emiphumeleni ebhedayo yokuguquguquka kwesimo sezulu,” kusho isekela likanobhala oyinhloko wezokuphathwa komhlaba nezimbiwa phansi, uSteve Feldgus.. "Ngokuhlela okubanzi nokubambisana, asivikeli nje kuphela izindawo zethu zomphakathi kodwa futhi siqinisekisa ukuthi imvume yamaphrojekthi elanga ihamba ngokushesha nangempumelelo kakhudlwana, igwema izingxabano kanye nokulingana okufanele njengoba sithuthukisa amandla ahlanzekile futhi sivikela imvelo."
Uhlelo olubuyekeziwe oluhlongozwayo, olwakhiwe ngemibono eminingi yomphakathi, luzoqondisa ukuphathwa kwe-BLM kweziphakamiso zamandla kagesi welanga namaphrojekthi ezindaweni zomphakathi. I-BLM ihlanganise imibono evela kubabambiqhaza abaningi futhi yenza izibuyekezo eziqhubeka zivikela izindawo zezilwane zasendle kanye nemigudu yokufuduka nezinye izinsiza ezibalulekile, kuyilapho inikeza ukucaciseleka embonini mayelana nezindawo ezinezingxabano eziphansi kanye nezindlela zokuklama amaphrojekthi ukuze kuqondiswe intuthuko enomthwalo wemfanelo.
I-Solar Energy Industries Association (SEIA) ilinganisele kulolu hlelo, yamukela lokho uBen Norris, iphini likamongameli wezindaba zokulawula kwa-SEIA wathi kushaya "ibhalansi engcono phakathi kwezinhloso zayo zokongiwa kanye nezinjongo zokuthunyelwa kwamandla ahlanzekile".
"Sekuyiminyaka engaphezu kwe-12 i-SEIA ikhuthaza ukuthi kulinganiswe inkundla ukuze kuvuselelwe futhi kwandiswe ukufinyelela komhlaba womphakathi ukuze kuthuthukiswe amandla elanga nokugcinwa," kusho uNorris. “Ngenkathi sisabuyekeza imininingwane, kuyasijabulisa ukubona ukuthi iBLM ilalele uphenyo oluningi lwemboni yelanga futhi yengeza amahektha ayizigidi eziyi-11 esiphakamisweni sayo sokuqala. Nakuba lesi kuyisinyathelo esifanele, amafutha ezinto ezimbiwa phansi angafinyelela kumahektare angaphezu kwezigidi ezingu-80 omhlaba womphakathi, okuwuphinda izikhathi ezingu-2.5 inani lendawo yomphakathi etholakalayo esebenza ngelanga.”
I-BLM ithe lolu hlelo lusondeza ngamabomu intuthuko eduze kwezintambo zokudlulisa noma ezindaweni ezaziphazamisekile phambilini ukuze kugwenywe izindawo ezivikelekile, imithombo ebucayi yamasiko kanye nezindawo ezibalulekile zezilwane zasendle.
Ingxenye yayo yonke intuthuko ehlongozwayo yelanga yinkathi ebalulekile yokuphawula komphakathi. Isibonelo, ekuqaleni kuka-2024 i-BLM yafuna ukuphawula ngokuhlaziywa kwemvelo okwenzelwe i 400 MW iphrojekthi ye-Rough Hat ehlongozwa ngabakwaCandela Renewables. Itholakala cishe kumahektha ayi-2,400, amamayela angu-38 entshonalanga ye-Las Vegas, le phrojekthi izokhiqiza ugesi owanele ukuze inike amandla amakhaya acishe abe ngu-74,000 futhi izohlanganisa nesistimu yokugcina amandla ebhethri engu-200 MW.
Uhlelo LwaseNtshonalanga, olwaqala ukuthuthukiswa eminyakeni eyi-12 edlule, manje lubonisa izinguquko kwezobuchwepheshe futhi lubhekana nesidingo esikhulayo samandla ahlanzekile e-US.
"Uhlelo olusha lwe-Western Solar Plan luyisu elinomthwalo wemfanelo, elisebenzayo lokuthuthukisa amandla kagesi elanga ezindaweni zomphakathi zesizwe sethu elisekela imigomo kazwelonke yamandla ahlanzekile kanye nokuvikeleka kwamandla kazwelonke isikhathi eside," kusho umqondisi we-BLM uTracy Stone-Manning.. "Kuzoqhubeza ukuthuthukiswa kohlaka lwelanga ezindaweni ezinezingxabano ezimbalwa ezingaba khona ngenkathi kusiza isizwe ukuguqukela emnothweni wamandla ahlanzekile, kuqhubekisele phambili umgomo we-BLM wokusimamisa impilo, ukuhlukahluka, kanye nokukhiqiza kwezindawo zomphakathi ukuze zisetshenziswe futhi zijabulele izizukulwane zamanje nezesikhathi esizayo."
Ngokusho kwe-BLM, abaphathi be-Biden-Harris bagunyaze amaphrojekthi wamandla avuselelekayo angama-40 emazweni omphakathi okuyisishiyagalolunye kuwo angu-solar anamandla acishe abe ngu-29 GW wamandla noma anele ukunika amandla amakhaya angaphezu kwezigidi eziyi-12. Kulo nyaka i-BLM iphinde yakhipha uMthetho wokugcina Wamandla Avuselelekayo ozokwehlisa izindleko zamandla kagesi kanye nezindleko zokuthuthukisa amaphrojekthi elanga nomoya, uthuthukise izinqubo zokufaka izicelo zamaphrojekthi, futhi ukhuthaze abathuthukisi ukuthi baqhubeke ngokuzibophezela bathuthukise amaphrojekthi elanga nawomoya ezindaweni zomphakathi.

Ngemva kokuxazululwa kwanoma yiziphi izinkinga ezisele eziphawulwe kulesi sigaba, i-BLM izoshicilela Irekhodi Lesinqumo kanye Nezichibiyelo Zokugcina Zohlelo Lokuphathwa Kwezinsiza.
