OverviewDescriptionFossil fuel consumptionEconomic impactPerformanceEnvironmental impactsIn popular cultureExternal links

The Ivanpah Solar Electric Generating System is a concentrated solar thermal plant located in the Mojave Desert at the base of Clark Mountain in California, across the state line from Primm, Nevada. It was slated to close in 2026, but that decision has been reversed by the California Public Utilities Commission. The facility derives its name from its proximity to Ivanpah, California, which lies within the Mojave National Preserve
