The Center, New Mexico
The Center, officially known as The Center for Innovation, Testing and Evaluation,〔(【引用サイトリンク】url=http://www.pegasusglobalholdings.com/press-releases/center-for-innovation-testing-and-evaluation-010911.html )〕 is a proposed facility designed to test new technologies, particularly renewable natural energy.〔 It was originally to have been located on about 15 square miles near the town of Hobbs in Lea County, New Mexico it was to have been a city with no permanent population.〔 Due to the lack of people, The Center was described as a ghost town.〔 Construction was scheduled to start in June 2012, but was cancelled in July 2012.〔(Billion-Dollar Ghost Town Being Built in New Mexico for Self-Driving Car Research )〕 Pegasus Global Holdings' decision to build the city arose from their own testing needs.〔〔
The project appeared to be halted in 2013, however a new report in May 2015 reported that Pegasus was resuming planning and building efforts for the project.
==Design==
The purpose of The Center was to have been to “provide the opportunity for 'end-to-end' testing, evaluation and demonstration of new intelligent and green technologies and innovations.”〔 Because it is a city, The Center’s testing environment would have been more realistic than a laboratory’s.〔 In order to be useful for testing new technologies, The Center would have had functional utilities and telecommunications. The design of the center was inspired in part by Walt Disney World.〔〔 Like Disney, The Center has the “fun stuff” above ground, while the maintenance systems would have been largely underground. The Center’s lack of residents enabled experiments as well. Researchers could have tested potentially dangerous technology, like driverless vehicles, without putting anyone in harm’s way. In addition to addressing safety concerns, The Center would have allowed researchers to experiment with technology that, “for practical, financial, () bureaucratic…reasons,”〔 could not be done in an inhabited area.〔
