Pacific Gas and Electric Company (PG & E) 24 announced the launch of a five-year plan for solar power generation is expected to be in California to Northern California and up to five hundred million watts users (500 MV) of clean energy and to become the nation's largest solar power plan, PG & E said that although the plan has not yet obtained the California Public Utilities Commission (CPUC) through, but it is expected plans could be provided in a number of related jobs.

     PG & E CEO and President Peter Darbee said that this program unprecedented use of large amounts of capital and expertise, while marking the PG & E's commitment to "accelerate the users to send renewable, clean energy," he pointed out that many renewable energy projects because of current economic conditions and delays However, protecting the environment and service users in the premise, PG & E was immediately took action.

     PG & E Energy Purchasing Vice President Wan Fang explained that the program is divided into two parts, one is to produce 200 million 50 million watts electricity from PG & E has a solar power system, belonging to PG & E decade's first direct investment in renewable energy projects, the other is to produce 200 million 50 million watts power, by independent developers to build and own solar grid tie inverter power system, PG & E is currently the California Public Utilities Commission to submit an application, available this year is expected to pass.

     All projects are expected to be completed in 2015 and opened a total annual electricity production could be more than one trillion watt hours (1000 gigawatt hour), equivalent to 150,000 households a year the sum of the required power, accounting for PG & E's electricity demand 1.3%.

     PG & E's solar power plan will consider all medium-sized power projects, power generation capacity from 1 million to 20 million watts range, and installed in the PG & E service area on the ground or on the roof of the plan, if approved by PG & E development and has The solar http://www.sungoldpower.co.uk/ power system will be built in the PG & E have on the ground or close to PG & E's electricity sub-station, in order to reduce grid connection cost and time error by an independent institutional development projects will get a standard energy supply contracts and cost lists.
