Associate Professor of Physics at the University of Utah, Dr. Robert Davies discusses the potential environmental impacts of the Box Elder County Stratos Project.

The project is estimated to use two times the power that the entire state of Utah uses. The preliminary analysis warns that the project’s thermal footprint could significantly alter local temperatures.
