A solar power plant with a cost of 4 billion U.S. dollars and a designed capacity of more than 1,000 megawatts broke ground in Bryce, southern California, and is expected to be completed in 2013. The California government stated that so far the construction scale of this solar power station is second to none in the world.
The Bryce Solar Power Plant covers an area of ​​approximately 2,800 hectares and is built on desert lands. It converts sunlight into heat and steam by means of a large array of concave mirrors to drive turbines to generate electricity. Power station developer US Solar Trust said that the project will be constructed in two phases, with an installed capacity of 500 MW per phase. The electricity generated after the completion of the project will be enough for 750,000 households.
Solar power not only depends on sunlight, but also takes up a large amount of land. In the southern part of California, there is plenty of sunshine and there are many desert lands with low commercial value, which is suitable for the development of solar power stations. Previously, 9 small solar power stations have been built in the nearby area, with a total installed capacity of 354 megawatts and a solar power station under construction with an installed capacity of 370 megawatts. The installed capacity of Bryce Solar Power Station is close to a nuclear power plant.
The California government plans to make renewable energy account for 33% of California's total energy consumption by 2020. The construction of the Blythe solar power station has made California an important step toward this goal.
