Solar Thermal Power & Clean Energy Technology
Developed and installed by 3Tek Solar, a solar integrator based in Tijuana, the system is composed of 4,284 high-performance SolarWorld solar panels. About 1.14 megawatts of those panels are mounted on the factory’s industrial metal-seam roof using SolarWorld’s Sunfix Plus racking product.

This system will deliver in excess of 8,000 MWh of clean renewable energy. In real terms this capacity will present an energy offset of 67,000 Mcf of natural gas and a savings of 6,900 metric tons of carbon dioxide emissions each year.

Over 75% of homeowners, businesses, and governmental organizations do not have suitable rooftops for solar panels because of trees, shading from other buildings, and other physical restrictions. Unlike other forms of solar energy like rooftop panels or large utility scale systems built for large energy companies, Community Solar allows all customers to simply choose to produce their own clean, locally generated solar energy without restriction.

Once that plan is finalized, it will no doubt be the subject of lawsuits that will ultimately be up to the Supreme Court to decide. The greenhouse gas war is not over yet.

The project, named Capital Partners Solar Project and supplied by Duke Energy Renewables, comprises 52 megawatts (MW) of solar photovoltaic (PV) power, which is the equivalent of the electricity used in 8,200 homes every year. It is the largest non-utility solar PV power purchase agreement in the United States in total contracted megawatt hours and the largest PV project east of the Mississippi River.

A larger, higher-power evolution of UltraFlex, called MegaFlex, has recently completed development testing at NASA’s Plum Brook Station. MegaFlex was designed for high-power spacecraft such as those using future solar electric propulsion systems being developed by NASA for deep space exploration missions, including the Asteroid Redirect Mission.

Based on a review and analysis of data from state compliance filings and other sources, the report finds that the estimated incremental RPS cost over the 2010-2012 period — the cost above and beyond what would have been incurred absent the RPS — was less than 1 percent of retail electricity rates on average. This is well below the cost caps that most state legislatures have adopted as part of their RPS.
