California Turns to Natural Resources

摘要

Riverside County, one of the sunnier spots in sunny Southern California, has decided to cash in on its natural resources by developing as much as 500 MW of solar energy capacity through new projects. Last month, US Interior Secretary Ken Salazar said his department has targeted 202,295 acres of public lands in the eastern half of Riverside County-about an hour east of Los Angeles - as the largest of 24 solar energy study zones singled out for fast-track development.
