The sunny, Central Washington town of Cle Elum could be the site of the world’s largest solar power plant, if a Washington company makes good on plans announced today.
Teanaway Solar Reserve hopes to gain approval from Kittitas County to build a 75 megawatt plant, made up of 400,000 photovoltaic panels. The energy produced would be enough for 45,000 homes, said Howard Trott, the Kirkland man who heads the operation.
Trott said he expects the plant to be operational by 2011.
