924th largest plant in California · 6680th nationally
Solar Photovoltaic Project #26 is a solar power plant in California with a nameplate capacity of 6.0 MW. It generates roughly 1.3k MWh per year — enough to power about 125 average U.S. homes.
Its capacity factor of 3% reflects intermittent or peaking operation.

Utility-scale solar farms convert sunlight directly into electricity using photovoltaic panels. They produce zero direct emissions and have no fuel cost, but generation is variable — peaking at midday and falling to zero at night. Capacity factors typically run 18–28% in good locations.
