FUEL FROM THE SKY: SOLAR POWER’S POTENTIAL FOR WESTERN ENERGY SUPPLY Solar Farms Can Be Built in Deserts All western solar resources are located in deserts. The Southwest has vast expanses of extremely arid land that host few animals and plants, mostly congregated along rivers, streams, and arroyos. The land in between these arteries of life is often barren. It is these hottest and most lifeless parts of America’s landscape that are most suitable for solar power plant develop- ment. Much of this land is administered by the Bureau of Land Management (BLM) and, unless it contains mineral resources, may be of little economic value. All power plants occupy land and have an environmental impact, including solar power plants, which require about 4 to 5 acres per megawatt. The desert ecology deserves protection, but the best locations for solar power plants are on land for which there might be few other uses. Western Solar Resources Often Close to Load Centers At the same time, this land is close to some of the fastest growing load centers. Two reasons explain this: one is the geography of California and the other is the migration of millions of Americans into the Desert Southwest. People like areas with a lot of sunshine. In close proximity to Los Angeles lie the vast expanses of the Mojave Desert, a premium solar resource area. Often there will be clear skies over the desert while Los Angeles is cloudy. Large deserts surround Las Vegas, another premium solar resource area and one of the fastest grow- ing cities in the country. El Paso, Texas, and Phoenix, Arizona, which both have excellent solar resources, are also surrounded by deserts. The unique situation in the Desert Southwest and California offers an enormous potential for the development of solar power plants. Characterized by high load centers surrounded by vast deserts, this region likely offers the best solar power opportunities in the world. Solar Popular with Residents When people are asked to name a renewable energy source they usually reply “solar” or “wind.” Yet the information citizens have about these energy sources is often marginal. Solar power is usually identified with PV cells, and the use of solar power for large-scale power production is considered a utopian dream. Virtually unknown is the fact that thermal solar power plants can produce large amounts of reliable power today. Our research suggests that western policy makers are likely to find their citizens ready to embrace energy from solar power. Green energy programs, which sell power generated from renewable energies at a premium to customers, have been successful and in some areas up to 5% of consumers have switched to “green” energy.5 Most of these programs are running short on green capacity and thus have had to cut back on their marketing.
