34°51′13″N 116°40′59″W / 34.85361°N 116.68306°W / 34.85361; -116.68306[edit on Wikidata]
The Newberry Springs CPV Power Plant is a 1.68 MWp (1.5 MWAC) concentrator photovoltaics (CPV) power station in Newberry Springs, California. [1] [2] It was built by Blattner Energy using 60 dual-axis CX-S530 systems, each of which contains 12 CX-M500 modules. [3] Each module contains 2,400 Fresnel lenses to concentrate sunlight 500 times onto multi-junction solar cells, allowing a greater efficiency than other photovoltaic power plants. [4] The output is being sold to Southern California Edison under a 20-year Power Purchase Agreement. [5]
