New Mexico Independent - Big solar plant planned for Mesa del Sol is still full steam… er, sunshine… ahead

New Mexico Independent - Big solar plant planned for Mesa del Sol is still full steam… er, sunshine… ahead

The Associated Press is reporting that despite the current economic downturn, Schott Solar, a New York-based manufacturer and distributor, is still doing well and the plans for a 250,000-square-foot Albuquerque solar panel plant are going ahead as planned. The plant will be built in the Mesa Del Sol area on the southern end of Albuquerque.


This is just the kind of manufacturing that we need to build in the U.S. to help save the middle class and keep us from slipping into third world nation status - basically an exporter of raw materials and a play haven for the rich.
