Planned Closure

Ivanpah is a concentrated solar power facility in the Mojave Desert that uses hundreds of thousands of mirrors to reflect sunlight to a central tower, heating a fluid to drive a steam turbine and generate electricity. It has been supplying power for over 11 years, enough to power 140,000 homes. The plant cost $2.2 billion to build, with $1.6 billion in loans from the U.S. Department of Energy. Due

Description

Description

Ivanpah is a concentrated solar power facility in the Mojave Desert that uses hundreds of thousands of mirrors to reflect sunlight to a central tower, heating a fluid to drive a steam turbine and generate electricity. It has been supplying power for over 11 years, enough to power 140,000 homes. The plant cost $2.2 billion to build, with $1.6 billion in loans from the U.S. Department of Energy. Due to the significant cost reduction in photovoltaic solar panels, Ivanpah's energy is no longer cost-competitive, leading to its planned closure early next year.
