3. Results and Accomplishments 3.1 1000 MW Siting Analysis The results of the preliminary siting analysis are shown graphically in Fig. 1 below. The outlined areas for each state show the best locations for development of future CSP plants based on the application of GIS filters, and consideration of transmission constraints and access to load centers. capacity in these four states. Each state has enough land illuminated by the highest solar radiation levels, such that only a small segment would be enough to generate its current electricity needs. 3.2 Economic Impact Analysis Economic impacts were derived for three scenarios: a single 100-MW trough facility, three 100-MW trough facilities built over a 3-year timeframe, and ten 100-MW trough facilities built over a 10-year time frame. The results of the first and third scenarios are discussed here since the second scenario falls between these two extremes. For the single-trough facility, the direct construction impact, including labor, capital, land, and contingencies, totals $485.6 million. Each year, 817 jobs are directly tied to constructing the facility. Indirect and induced job creation totals another 1,570 jobs during the construction phase, suggesting an employment multiplier of 2.9. Employment impacts average 140 jobs annually. Total personal income in Nevada attributable to the construction phase (2004 through 2006) and the O&M phase (2007 through 2035) is estimated to be $1.15 billion. GSP would be boosted by $1.14 billion. As expected, the 10-plant scenario, 1000-MW total, offers the highest economic impact. Employment impacts are largest during the early years of the construction phase. Initial employment impact is 3,830 jobs in the first year of construction, rising quickly to a peak of over 6,940 jobs in 2005. The first post-construction year enjoys employment impacts of 1,090 jobs. Over the O&M phase, employment impacts average 1,800 jobs. Total personal income and GSP generated between 2004 and 2035 totals $9.37 and $9.85 billion, respectively. The results revealed significant economic benefits, in terms of GSP, new employment, and personal income to the state of Nevada. As such, CSP generation is shown to be a potential source of significant economic development throughout the state. Tallying the economic and environmental benefits of solar-power generation, it is clear that it could be an important contributor to sustainable economic development in rural areas.

The resulting land area and associated CSP generation capacity are given in Table 1. Table 1. Suitable Land for CSP Plants and Associated Generation Potential Location 1 Available Area (mi2) Arizona 25,527 California 6,421 Nevada 5,807 New Mexico 23,640 Total 61,395 Capacity (MW) 3,267,456 821,888 743,296 3,025,920 7,858,560 The data in Table 1 show that, even if only the high-value resources are considered, there is potential for more than 7 million MW of solar generation capacity in the Southwest. Currently, there are about 100,000 MW of generation
