What is the schedule for construction of the NEON infrastructure? Which facilities will be built first?
Currently, NEON, Inc. plans to construct NEON over approximately five to seven years in order to spread out costs and reduce risks. Approximately the first 1.5 years will be devoted to construction of the facilities of the first of twenty domains where conditions are relatively tractable. Thereafter, NEON, Inc. will construct facilities for two domains per year over the next two years under a variety of conditions for climate and ecosystem structure. Finally, NEON, Inc. will construct facilities for the remaining fifteen domains at a rate of five domains per year over the next three years.
