美国已经推出最大国有土地光伏电站计划，即在Arizona州Glendale的Luke空军基地建立一个15兆瓦光伏电站。
该项目将由加州SunPower代表Arizona Public Service Company全权负责，包括设计及建设。Arizona Public Service Compan将拥有该电站的所有权及运营权。
该项目将在100英亩的土地上使用52,000 个SunPower的太阳能电池板及Sunpower的单轴跟踪系统，追踪划过天空的太阳。
该项目产生电力可满足州内3,750个家庭的需求，根据APS的购买协议， 该电站将长期为空军基地提供电力。
该项目是APS授权的卢克空军基地的第二个太阳能合作项目。2006年，该基地的户外屋顶安装了一个375千瓦的太阳能系统。
此前，SunPower空军合作，在内华达州的Nellis空军基地建设了一个14.2MW的太阳能光伏项目。
Plans have been unveiled for the largest solar power facility ever on US government property, a 15-megawatt photovoltaic plant at the Luke Air Force Base in Glendale, Arizona.
The system is to be designed and built by California firm SunPower Corporation on behalf of the Arizona Public Service Company, which will own and operate it.
It is to comprise 52,000 SunPower solar panels no a 100-acre site, using a single-axis tracking system to follow the sun across the sky.
Generating enough power to supply the equivalent of 3,750 Arizona homes, the system will provide power to the Air Force Base under a long-term power purchase agreement with APS.
The project is the second solar project for the Luke Air Force Base in which APS has partnered. A 375-kilowatt system was installed in 2006 on the Base Exchange roof.
SunPower has also worked with the Air Force before, developing a 14.2MW facility at Nellis Air Force Base, Nevada.
