Wind energy is an engineer’s nightmare. To begin with, the
energy density of flowing air is miserably low. Therefore, you need
a massive contraption to catch one megawatt at best, and a thousand
of these to equal a single gas-or coal-fired power plant. If you design them for a wind speed of 34
MetLife and John Hancock Financial Services will finance the construction and third-party ownership of a 19-megawatt (MW) solar photovoltaic power plant that SunPower Corporation is contracted to build for Xcel Energy in Colorado’s Alamosa County, the companies announced today.
