Probably cost more to clean up the fried birds on those mirrors than they thought...
…referred to by plant workers as “streamers”
They built a massive solar array in central Texas and it was nearly destroyed in a hail storm last year. It always looks good on paper but never seems to be as good in the real world.
I remember that.
It was awesome!
Can the residents of California get a refund?
No. And no reparations either...
But, but, but...I needs my monys, bro. Give a brotha a handout, not a hand up. ;)
I thought that place had shut down years ago. What a terrible misguided idea.
Article describes Ivanpah as looking like an art installation.
Hard NO! It looks evil, other-worldly, and wrong.
In addition, not producing at all as expected. Imagine the garbage!
Solindra all over again. What a pathetic waste.
In the meantime Newsome secures billions of dollars to continue funding the High Speed Rail Train to nowhere, the next project to fail.
All the solar plants can not meet the demands they need to. They lose money like crazy.
