Green light for Ivanpah Solar Project
The company expects to start building the Ivanpah Solar Electric Generation System, which will have a capacity of 392 megawatts, later this year and complete the work in 2012.
The Ivanpah plant is one of nine large-scale solar projects working through the federal permitting process for building on public land. The BLM yesterday gave approval for two other solar projects to built on public lands, also in southern California.

It will use thousands of mirrors to reflect light onto centralized towers, which will use the heat from the sunlight to make steam. That steam is run though a turbine to turn a generator to make electricity.
