Biggest Solar Farm in The U.S
By Nick December 20, 2007
A U.S Air Force base in Nevada opened the biggest photovoltaic solar panel in the US, that brings power for abot 3,000 people from the base. The 14 megawattfarm is placed near Las Vegas and it will generate 30,000 megawatt hours a year, covering 140 acres. It isn’t very productive, but it’s something good, considering it reduces the use of energy produced from coal.
The U.S. military announced they also have more projects to build solar farms like this to power military bases.
It’s very good that the U.S Army thinks green and really make something to help the environment.

So what is the huge body of water in the background? The Nevada Ocean? It doesn’t look like a very big solar farm either, the rest must be quite small if this is the biggest.

Either that, or a photo of Nevada in the future once California has ripped away from the rest of the North American continent
