| History |
| Today, Dr. Swanson’s original vision – that solar energy generated from massive installations in the desert might power the electrical grid - is about to become reality. In 2008, SunPower signed an agreement with PG&E to build the world’s largest – 250 MW – photovoltaic (PV) power plant, set to begin energy delivery in 2010. Florida Power & Light Co. also contracted with us to provide 25 MW of electricity in 2009, and another 10 MW by the end of 2010.
We continue to provide high-energy solar systems for the world’s business and technology leaders, governmental agencies, retailers and other entities, along with the highest-efficiency solar panels for our international residential customers. And, in addition to our U.S. bases of operation, SunPower maintains offices in Canada, Germany, Italy, Spain, Switzerland as well as Singapore, Korea, and Australia.
What’s next? At SunPower we’re always striving to improve our technologies and drive solar power innovation, all with the goal of changing the way the world is powered. After all, there’s always something new under the sun.
