Waterfront Mega Solar Power Generation Plan. Say that three times fast.
I guess the title has to be fitting for the size of the project,
however, because the two facilities will have a 28,000 kW combined
maximum capacity and will help to reduce CO2 emissions by a whopping
10,000 tons annually. The city will work in conjunction with Sharp
Japan and Kansai Electric Power, with Sharp planning on using thin-film
silicon solar modules.</P></blockquote><div style="height: 2px; font-size: 2px; background: #dcdcdc; border-bottom: solid 1px #f5f5f5; margin: 2px 4px;"></div><blockquote style="text-align: left; padding: 0px 8px; margin: 4px 0px 8px 0px; background: transparent; border: none;" cite="http://www.dailygalaxy.com/my_weblog/2008/07/japan-creates-m.html"><DIV>Japan is fast becoming the world's solar capital.
