I'll dig around a bit later
EDIT for what it's worth, its output is~32,000 GWh annually - that's more than thirty-seven (37) times the capacity of the Ivanpah facility ~850 KWh) on the CA/NV border , on around the same footprint (~4,500 - 5,000 acres) of pristine Mojave desert they wrecked and now blind everyone driving the 15.. oh and check out this CRAZY temperature inversion that I recorded a couple years ago, causing a nice dust storm- not to mention the cooked birds and 500,000,000 cu ft of natural gas it consumes just to start the turbines in the morning lol
