The Senate’s top Democrat is proud of securing taxpayer backing for a green energy company accused by former employees of fraudulently obtaining federal grant money, his office said this week.

 

Two former employees of Ormat Technologies filed a lawsuit in 2013 claiming the company lied to the Treasury Department in order to secure more than $130 million in federal grants. The lawsuit was unsealed last year, but has garnered little attention since then.

 

In a series of emails, a spokeswoman for Senate Minority Leader Harry Reid (D., Nev.) defended his work on behalf of the Israeli company, which operates geothermal energy plants in Nevada and is fighting the allegations in federal court.Scissors-32x32.png
