Original Note:
While the NAME of this facility is "Ivanpah Solar Power" it doesn't use panels like most solar power projects. Instead it uses a concentrated solar thermal plant where mirrors reflect sunlight on to a boiler. New solar panel power facilities are much more efficient. https://www.enr.com/articles/60307-older-ivanpah-solar-plant-in-california-will-close-units-as-tech-shifts
