Large solar plant in Mojave Desert appears headed for CLOSURE 11 years after opening, BECAUSE it’s More EXPENSIVE!!!
"As part of PG&E’s 2023 process, current plant owner Solar Partners offered PG&E the opportunity to terminate the Ivanpah Solar power purchase agreements," the company said in a statement. "PG&E Determined that ENDING the agreements at this time Will SAVE customers MONEY compared to the cost of keeping them through 2039."
ABC News reported that Southern California Edison is involved in discussions about TERMINATING its Contract with the plant as well.
Environmental groups have criticized the plant after rays from its mirrors have been linked KILLING Thousands of birds.
Environmentalists from the Western Watersheds Project organization were against construction of the plant due to its impact on desert tortoise.
Environmental groups are advocating for the CANCELLATION of a separate planned solar project in the Mojave Desert.
