According to Synapse Energy Economics, the estimated construction cost for the facility of $5,561.00 per kW fell between that of coal and nuclear power plants. [45] [46] but this does not account for the less favorable capacity factor of solar power.
Power is generated at 18,000 volts then stepped up to 230,000 volts to be distributed to various receiving substations in Los Angeles. Each of the six 250,000 kilowatt units function as pumps as well as generators. Each pump will have a power input of 320,000 horsepower (240,000 kW) when pumping at a rate of 2,300 cubic feet per second (65 m 3 ...
