When completed, the installation is expected to provide enough power for approximately 300 households by generating 1,000MWh of electricity and off-setting about 500 tons of CO2 emissions each year.
Construction of the solar facility started this month and is planned to be completed in June 2011.
Kyocera is also supplying modules for large-scale solar power plants to be constructed by Tokyo Electric, Kyushu Electric and Shikoku Electric in Japan.
According to Kyocera, power companies across Japan have planned to build roughly 30 large-scale solar power plants with a total generating capacity of 140MW by 2020, with estimations that the adoption of large-scale solar power plants will continue to increase.
