Johnson Controls and Solar Power Partners developed the solar power installation using 55 SolFocus SF-1100S tracking CPV systems.
The city leased the land to Solar Power Partners who financed and owns the project, and will operate the plant, selling electricity to the water reclamation plant under a long-term power purchase agreement.
The project was originated by Johnson Controls who is also designing and constructing the facility under contract with Solar Power Partners.
The plant is connected to the regional electrical grid serviced by the Imperial Irrigation District.
The SolFocus SF-1100S system being deployed at the water reclamation plant features dual-axis tracking for consistent energy delivery.
