Thanks to Google for his green project initiative program... spending $168 million for this noble work. Earlier it has move forward for many wind and solar projects...

The Ivanpah Solar Electric Generating System is owned jointly by NRG Energy, Google, and Bright Source Energy...  Spread over a region of 5 square miles in California’s Mojave Desert. The plant contains 300,000 mirrors controlled by systems and reflecting sunrays to boilers at a height of 450 ft. the collected rays are projected to water stored in boilers and the sun heat converts its into steam which used to power the turbines for energy generation.
As told by the experts it can output approx. 400 mega watts of energy at full capacity.. it will power 140000 homes of California with clean energy and avoiding 400000 metric tons of carbon dioxide per year.
The temperature of these panel are reaching a high of 1000 degrees Fahrenheit causing environmental issues of burning feathers of birds that get trapped the immense heat of the panels.. this issue can’t be avoided as it’s the main functionality of the panels but the solar panels have a lot more to do..
