This is the first I've heard about this initiative. I'm not a great fan of Schwarzenegger as governor but his initiatives in solar power have been highly laudable. Using large areas of rooftops in developed areas makes sense. There's a lot of space available and the power will be produced where it's needed. As the article points out, this eases the demands on the power grid which is already the limiting factor during peak times on hot summer days in southern California.
The author is mistaken about it being the largest solar project by a power utility. The there are already two much bugger projects under way (also in southern California):

These will total at least 800 MW with options for expansion to 1750 MW.
Great!
