Nevada Geothermal Power Inc., the renewable-energy developer that received a U.S. loan guarantee, may transfer ownership of a Nevada power plant to a lender after projecting the facility will produce less power than expected.

Output at the company’s Blue Mountain geothermal field is projected to fall below 34 megawatts this year and will decline to about 15 megawatts by 2020, Vancouver-based Nevada Geothermal said today in a statement.
