This is a solar power plant near Kramer Junction where CA58 and CA395 come together between Mojave, Ca and Barstow, Ca.

 

The Kramer Junction companies operate and maintain five 30-megawatt Solar Electric Generating Systems (SEGS). These SEGS comprise 150 to 354 megawatts of installed parabolic trough solar thermal electric generating capacity located in California's Mojave desert. The combined California facilities produce more than 99% of the commercially available solar generated electric power in the U.S.
