GE To Build Largest U.S. Solar Factory In Colorado

GE has announced plans to spend $600 million on a new solar factory located in the Denver suburb of Aurora, Colorado. The factory, which begins operations in 2012, will be capable of producing enough solar panels per year to generate 400 megawatts of power, or enough energy to power 80,000 homes. When completed, the factory will be bigger than 11 football fields - soon to be the largest factory of its kind in the U.S. The business will also bring 355 jobs to Colorado plus 100 more positions at GE's research facility in upstate New York.
