  • California Solar Leader
    California solar leader California's Lake County, GE, and SunPower partnered on a multi-site 2.2- megawatt solar power system that-combined with an existing solar power installation-now makes Lake County home to the largest solar power installations on county facilities in California. By Vicky Boyd You could call Lake County ‘the little county that could.' Situated northeast of San Francisco, Lake County is not the most populous county in California, nor is it the richest. But progressive thinking on the part of the board of supervisors and Lake County Sanitation District has allowed the county to become a leader in sustainable resource development and use. In fact, Lake County is now a net energy producer. "The board of supervisors has taken a leadership role of becoming sustainable and becoming energy efficient. They did it prior to a lot of other counties, and we continue to do it," says Denise Rushing, Lake County supervisor representing District 3. "They were very receptive to solar and focused on energy efficiency." As a result, the county now has 3.1 megawatts of solar-generated power, making it the largest solar-energy system on county property in California. But the county probably wouldn't have been able to finance and build such large projects on its own. Rushing credits the SunPower Access Power Purchase Agreement (PPA) as the catalyst. Under that agreement, GE Energy Financial Services financed, and will own, a 2.1 MW project. SunPower Corp. of San Jose designed and built the project and will maintain it for 20 years.
