We need more nuclear power ASAP
Vegas is almost entirely powered by the hoover dam. It's already pretty green as far as energy goes. The question will be where do they get their power from in a few years when lake mead dries up.
That's not true. The Hoover Dam contributes to Vegas's power supply, but it's nowhere near "almost entirely powered" by the dam, except in Fallout: New Vegas.
Turns out you're correct. I appreciate the correction.
Fallout: New Vegas is powered by my ever dwindling sanity. I am currently trying to get my mods to play nice.
Also its implied ingame that only the strip is powered by the damn dam and that Freeside and West Vegas get either limited or no power, hence why directing the electricity from Helios One to the area is such a big deal.
