High Concentrating Solar Photovoltaic Demonstration & Research Project for the Southern Nevada Water Authority located at the River Mountain Water Treatment Facility. The construction consisted of the installation of six (6) pedestal mounted high concentrating Solar PV systems with individual power rating outputs of 37 kW totaling 222 kW. Each of the six individual Solar PV systems uses a cutting-edge dual tracking system and multi-junction solar cells maximizing the efficiency of the solar panels and allowing for maximum clean electrical power generation. A net total of 14,100 square feet of solar panels are now installed and operational, tracking the sun’s daily path across the southern Nevada sky. The dual tracking system and solar panels were designed and manufactured by Amonix, Inc.
