Pacific Gas & Electric today will announce a deal to buy as much as 900 
megawatts of electricity. It will be enough to power 540,000 California 
homes each year, and involve the construction of five solar power plants 
during the next decade. The company to build the solar-thermal power 
plants in the Mojave Desert is BrightSource Energy. "From what I know, 
this is the biggest commitment ever in the history of solar," said John 
Woolard, BrightSource Energy's chief executive officer and president. 
"It's a fairly significant undertaking on both sides."
