"Obama Coming To Las Vegas for Clean Energy Summit"

"President Barack Obama and Nevada's U.S. Sen. Harry Reid, two of the most powerful Democrats in the nation, are playing key roles in the National Clean Energy Summit in Las Vegas on Monday.

The president will be the keynote speaker at the eighth annual summit, held at the Mandalay Bay Convention Center.

The event will focus on the public-private partnerships for clean energy and investments needed to modernize the electric grid infrastructure beyond its reliance on fossil fuels.

Reid on Friday released a report on the state of clean energy in the Silver State in advance of the summit. He is a big backer of renewable energy, as his report shows."
