Solar Star is a 579-megawatt (MWAC) photovoltaic power station near Rosamond, California. Completed in June 2015, it is currently the world's largest solar farm in terms of installed capacity, using 1.7 million solar panels, made by SunPower and spread over 13 square kilometers (3,200 acres).〔(【引用サイトリンク】publisher=GreenTechMedia.com )〕 == Comparison to similar plants == Compared to other photovoltaic plants of similar size, Solar Star uses a smaller number (1.7 million) of higher efficiency arrays, mounted on single axis trackers. In contrast, the Desert Sunlight Solar Farm and the Topaz Solar Farm (550 MW each) use a larger number (roughly 9 million) of non-tracking CdTe photovoltaic modules rather than conventional crystalline silicon PV technology, spread over a larger area (about 25 square kilometers). Both approaches appear commercially viable. There are a number of other solar photovoltaic plants nearby: *Antelope Valley Solar Ranch (266 MW from 3.8 million thin film panels) *Alpine Solar (66 MW AC, thin film panels) *Catalina Solar Project (60 MW, thin film panels) 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Solar Star」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
