Navajo Wind Energy - a house of cards?
By Matthew Donovan 4/1/2009 10:01:19 PM GMT
ATLANTA, GA.: Atlanta-based Navajo Wind Energy (PINK SHEETS: CLBN) has issued a large number of press releases, touting its success in entering the Chinese wind power market. However, some evidence suggests that the company's business foundations may not be as solid as indicated.
In the past few months, Navajo claims to have received a letter of intent for US$50 million of financing for a 200 MW wind farm in Xinjiang, China, valued at US$450 million and agreed to work with Mingchuang Energy Manufacturing Co. to create a joint venture on wind projects in China. According to a statement issued by Navajo, the two companies have signed a turbine supply and purchase agreement for 80 turbines for the company's Xinjiang wind farm project.
While Navajo's position sounds enviable, the company appears to be having problems. Pink OTC Markets has discontinued the display of quotes on pinksheets.com for the company's securities because it has been labeled Caveat Emptor (Buyer Beware) and because adequate current information has not been made available by the issuer of the securities.
According to Pink OTC Markers, Navajo has been labeled Caveat Emptor for one of the following reasons: questionable promotion, spam, investigation of fraud, suspension/halt, disruptive corporate actions, unsolicited quotes or other public interest concerns.
Consequently, Pink OTC Markets has removed the quotes from its Web site until adequate current information is made available by Navajo and until Pink OTC Markets believes there is no longer a public interest concern.
In a statement dated March 20, Navajo said it was in the process of filing current information with Pink Sheets and "working diligently compiling its information for filing with the Pink Sheets OTC disclosure and news service to update our corporate disclosure."

How did a failing California solar company, buffeted by short sellers and shareholder lawsuits, receive a $1.2 billion federal loan guarantee for a photovoltaic electricity ranch project—three weeks after it announced it was building new manufacturing plant in Mexicali, Mexico, to build the panels for the project.
The company, SunPower (SPWR-NASDAQ), now carries $820 million in debt, an amount $20 million greater than its market capitalization. If SunPower was a bank, the feds would shut it down. Instead, it received a lifeline twice the size of the money sent down the Solyndra drain. Cut continues, here-

ATLANTA, GA--(Marketwire - July 14, 2009) - Navajo Wind Energy Corp. (the "Company" and formerly Caliber Energy Inc.)

The acquisition of First Wind Energy Systems ("First Wind") brings smaller wind turbine expertise to Navajo Wind to enhance and expand its community wind power product and service offerings.
"The acquisition of First Wind Energy Systems is a perfect fit for Navajo Wind," stated Barry Doyle, CEO of Navajo. "First Wind extends our area of expertise and service coverage offerings into community scale wind projects by employing smaller wind turbines, an area virtually untouched by the wind development industry. First Wind's systems are designed to be installed in a wide spectrum of smaller site classifications such as residential, municipal utilities, bank branches, agricultural, general commercial, universities and other institutions."
"The acquisition of First Wind was always part of our plan to expand our business rapidly," continued Barry Doyle. "We think this sends a strong message that we want to be the leader in the community energy and small scale wind arena. The growth opportunities in this sector are enormous and there are very few entities with the capabilities that are brought to the market place by Navajo. Going forward, we will continue to consider opportunities to expand our business and will certainly be opportunistic when the right strategic fit presents itself. This acquisition demonstrates our wherewithal to get deals done to expand our business in the right way."

Another major international player in the wind energy business will soon be calling Chicago home, as Chinese manufacturer Goldwind has announced plans to locate its North American headquarters in the city.
Goldwind's move to the Windy City is the latest in a string of major wind firms that have looked to Chicago as the most logical business center for their US operations, attracted by the city's central location, international airports, strong legal and financial expertise, and an experienced, educated workforce.
The firm also announced it has hired a talented pair of new executives to head the company, including Tim Rosenzweig as CEO and Matthew Olive as Director of Sales, both well-seasoned wind industry officials.

The US Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) has suspended 255 shell companies from trading from 3 February through 14 February to prevent “pump and dump” fraud, and stocks will not be relisted if companies fail to prove they are operational.
The suspension took hold at the start of trading on 3 February and will end at 11:50 p.m. on Feb. 14. Suspended stocks can't be relisted unless the company can prove it is still operational, a requirement that the SEC said was "extremely rare."

Comment
How true! ENRON corporate fraud was never truly addressed by FERC Chair Patrick Wood III, later named Director of First Wind.
Pat Wood III, as FERC Chairman, was tasked by President G.W. Bush to address energy market manipulation that led to the CA Energy Crisis, even while Wood was a long time promoter of ENRON’s CEO Ken Lay.
Wood's failure to address the US most notorious case of corporate fraud by ENRON was sharply criticized by the Executive Director of the Foundation for Taxpayer and Consumer Rights Douglas Heller in their June 16, 2004 letter to FERC Chairman Pat Wood III that states, in part, link to letter below:
California ratepayers remain at least $7 billion short of what they are due in refunds in large measure because the FERC, under your leadership, has failed to protect consumers from the illegal profiteering of energy companies and has refused to enforce the law so Californians can recover billions of dollars stolen from the state.
It is, of course, not just the outstanding refunds that you have withheld, but your unwillingness to bring energy companies to the table for contract renegotiation that is so offensive. The market manipulation began at least as early as June 2000, according to a Department of Justice indictment of Reliant. It continued - as evidenced by Enron's "Fat Boy/Death Star" memo, the conversations about manipulation involving AES and Williams traders as well as the new Enron tapes and a host of other indisputable proof -- through the 2001 blackouts and price spikes. This should provide you with incontrovertible evidence that the contracts must be abrogated or renegotiated.
Although you do not attempt to defend these indefensible tapes, your effort to deflect their relevance in this manner demonstrates your continued allegiance to your long-time promoter Ken Lay. But more importantly, your letter shows that you do not grasp the heinousness of this massive larceny.

When they drop to the level of Caliber $0.0000001 (unregistered) I would be happy, however they will have sold of the projects, taken their ill gotten profits and left the stockholders with little to show unless like ENRON - ENRON II gets yet another government bail out. (Again our taxpayer funds, funding foreign corporations through their U.S. office associations) Another reason a need for these trade agreements.

Thank you, too, Eric :)

Thanks for taking the time to make an understanding of this confusing usage of a similar name Barbara.
This was my stumbling point some time back when doing research. I could not find the connection between that and current. I still can not make the dots connect (yet at least).
I was near sending out information to the STEWC coalition on the Bingham project when this became a dead end with Navajo/Caliber. So I had to withdraw that information due to uncertainty. I can fully see and comprehend the UPC versions of the First Wind name usage.
I also see how this can be confusing. As a former employer "Guilford Industries" textile, held the same name as a Rail corporation. Later after a lawsuit, the rail company retained the name, and the textile assumed "Guilford of Maine" Later under the Interface name. And the Rail now PanAm Rail.
I just do not want to be chasing the wrong Rabbit down the hole. And would rather err on the side of caution.
Again, Thanks for this information that you have devoted your time to bring forth.
Navajo/Caliber "pump and dump" fraudsters claim 750 KW wind turbines are for small scale, community wind projects by First Wind Energy Systems.
But, ENRON (U.S. most notorious case of corporate fraud) provides specifications for 750 KW turbines they've installed around the world.

Eric,
I think I'm following your point about community wind, small scale, used by scammers Navajo/ Caliber to describe First Wind Energy Systems.
Back in 2009, I searched for evidence that First Wind Energy Systems installed community, small-scale wind, or that it existed prior to Navajo/Caliber fraudulent press releases. I couldn't find any evidence that First Wind Energy Systems was in business prior to 2009 Caliber/Navajo announcements.
Do you, or does anyone reading this, suspect this is commercial or industrial wind development as represented by the SEC determined scammers now delisted?
"There is major breaking news coming from Navajo Wind Energy Corp. (formerly Caliber Energy Inc.) (PINKSHEETS: CLBN), as the company has just inked a wind turbine manufacturing supply agreement with an estimated value of US$65 Million.
Yesterday after the markets closed, the company, a renewable energy company focused on creating electricity from the power of wind, issued a press release announcing that it has signed a wind turbine manufacturing supply agreement (the "Agreement") for the delivery and commissioning of 53 750 KW wind turbines to China Lao Gaixian Wind L.P., represented by PCA Wind Power OA Inc., for its 120.80 MW wind farm project in Liaoning Province, China (the "China Lao Gaixian Project")."

Bear in mind that the Director of First Wind, Pat Wood, represents himself as Director of First Wind Energy Systems.
Happy Thanksgiving!

My read on this is that UPC and First Wind are indivisible per Gaynor. The operation is the same.
Thank you for your information, Kathy. Happy Thanksgiving~

Maine Center For Public Interest Reporting – Three Part Series: A CRITICAL LOOK AT MAINE’S WIND ACT
******** IF LINKS BELOW DON'T WORK, GOOGLE THEM*********
(excerpts) From Part 1 – On Maine’s Wind Law “Once the committee passed the wind energy bill on to the full House and Senate, lawmakers there didn’t even debate it. They passed it unanimously and with no discussion. House Majority Leader Hannah Pingree, a Democrat from North Haven, says legislators probably didn’t know how many turbines would be constructed in Maine if the law’s goals were met." . – Maine Center for Public Interest Reporting, August 2010 https://www.pinetreewatchdog.org/wind-power-bandwagon-hits-bumps-in-the-road-3/From Part 2 – On Wind and Oil Yet using wind energy doesn’t lower dependence on imported foreign oil. That’s because the majority of imported oil in Maine is used for heating and transportation. And switching our dependence from foreign oil to Maine-produced electricity isn’t likely to happen very soon, says Bartlett. “Right now, people can’t switch to electric cars and heating – if they did, we’d be in trouble.” So was one of the fundamental premises of the task force false, or at least misleading?" https://www.pinetreewatchdog.org/wind-swept-task-force-set-the-rules/From Part 3 – On Wind-Required New Transmission Lines Finally, the building of enormous, high-voltage transmission lines that the regional electricity system operator says are required to move substantial amounts of wind power to markets south of Maine was never even discussed by the task force – an omission that Mills said will come to haunt the state.“If you try to put 2,500 or 3,000 megawatts in northern or eastern Maine – oh, my god, try to build the transmission!” said Mills. “It’s not just the towers, it’s the lines – that’s when I begin to think that the goal is a little farfetched.” https://www.pinetreewatchdog.org/flaws-in-bill-like-skating-with-dull-skates/
