New 500 MW solar hot spot in California

 
Last week, Southern California Edison agreed with Stirling Energy Systems to purchase power over the next twenty years from a new solar power energy farm.  

The peak capacity of the farm will be 500 MW. The farm will be situated 100 kilometres northeast of Los Angeles. The project will consist of thousands of solar mirrors concentrating sunlight onto a Stirling engine. Stirling claims that the efficiency per m2 is far better than that of photovoltaic systems.

The project, which might be expanded to 850 MW, is now waiting for approval by the California Public Utilities Commission.
