Original Note:
The claim that Ivanpah only operated at "half capacity" because officials hadn't considered the weather is completely false. The facility operated at under half the output only during the first year, and ramped up to reach 80-90% of expected output by 2018. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ivanpah_Solar_Power_Facility
