We have arrived at the new normal for utility scale power plants utilizing renewable energy sourced from large scale solar with battery storage. This is one reason why I am optimistic that humanity can achieve net zero emission soon. Florida’s Power and Light (FPL) is the largest energy company in the United States and is a believer in renewable solar energy! FPL has already installed 41 solar farms and producing 3,000 MW of electricity! Wow… but that’s not it…
FPL just completed the demolition of its last coal fired power plant and is in the process of completing the worlds largest solar powered battery system! Please check out this great quick read for some more amazing details on this renewable energy solution that is here to stay! This system has the capacity to produce 900 MWh of energy – enough to power 320,000 homes for more than two hours or 100 Million iPhone batteries.
