Starwood Energy said today it signed a power purchase agreement with Arizona Public Service for the Starwood Solar I project. Lockheed Martin plans to design and build the concentrated solar trough plant with the capacity to generate 290 megawatts in Harquahala Valley Ariz. The agreement commits all renewable energy generated from the facility to electric utility Arizona Public Service. The facility’s technology expects to use parabolic mirrors that track the sun and focus its heat on a heat transfer fluid which heats water creating steam.
