Posted on: Monday, 28 July 2008, 09:01 CDT
First Solar has announced that it will build a 10MW photovoltaic power plant for Sempra Generation near Boulder City, Nevada.
First Solar will design, engineer and construct the turnkey photovoltaic (PV) power plant and will provide monitoring and maintenance services for the plant over its lifetime. Sempra Generation will be the developer for the project, and will own and operate the PV power plant once completed.
Construction began in July 2008, and the 10MW PV power plant is expected to be completed by the end of 2008. The solar modules to be deployed in this ground-mount project will be produced at First Solar's manufacturing facility in Perrysburg, Ohio.
Mike Ahearn, CEO of First Solar, said: "Sempra Generation has a proven track record for successful energy resource development and we are pleased to work with them to bring additional renewable electric generation to the region."
