| World's largest solar photovoltaic project Powered by Renewables, PBR, of Nevada announced it will partner with SunEdison of Maryland to develop the world's largest solar photovoltaic, PV, project in Nevada. The 18 megawatt project almost doubles what is currently the world's largest PV project, 10MW, located in Germany. PBR and SunEdison will develop a total of 36 MWs of PV projects in Nevada, enough energy to power 36,000 homes. Construction in Clark County is expected to begin in July and at other sites in early 2007. The proposed project will be privately owned and operated. The military intends to purchase electricity from the project. Projects developed by PBR and SunEdison will provide sustainable solutions to Nevada's growing energy needs, help reduce the state's $3 billion a year energy deficit, increase energy security, reduce energy-related emissions, and diversify Nevada's economy. write your comments about the article :: © 2006 Construction News :: home page |
