Chico, Oroville, Arbuckle, Forest Ranch - Feb 20, 2013

Two day trip to attend Ribbon Cutting ceremony for installation of 902 kilowatt SolarWorld solar panels at Strain Farms Rice Processing Plant. The 902 kilowatt system uses enphase microinverters which convert DC power to AC at each panel rather than at the main junction box. The panels cover over an acre of land and are only to run the rice drying facility. This is one of the largest farm-based solar installations in the United States. The website pictures, which I was there to take, can be found here: http://northstatesolarenergy.com/Strainranches.html. The large cylinders in the background hold rice for drying. Had an extra day to drive around.
