Another Obama-Funded “Green” Energy Company Goes Belly Up, Ener1 Files For Chapter 11 Bankruptcy After Receiving $118 Million DOE Grant…

Via The Foundry:

The company, Ener1, received a $118 million grant from DOE in 2010 as part of the president’s stimulus package. The money, which went to Ener1 subsidiary EnerDel, aimed to promote renewable energy storage battery technology for electrical grid use.

But despite generous federal support for the company, Ener1 was racked by problems last year. In October, NASDAQ delisted the company due to non-compliance with Securities and Exchange Commission filing requirements.

    Another failed ‘green’ energy boondoggle. I expect the news of said company’s executives being bundlers for the obama campaign to follow soon.

    How many jobs were lost on this waste of cash? Much like Romney’s cash, why doesn’t the press speculate on what this 100+ million could have bought?

    Still and all, you just can’t deny it- this is:

    winning the future, the soetero way!

    Its the new economy. If folks want to make some money come up with some green energy shell game. Californians blather openly about this with impunity.

    Its the new capitalism. Open a wound on the beast but dont wake it.
