Largest solar power plant in the world bursts into flames

From Rick Moran at The American Thinker Blog:
The Ivanpah Solar Electric Generating System, located near the California-Nevada border, burst into flames when some of the thousands of mirrors that focus sunlight on water towers became misalinged and started an electrical cable fire.

The plant was built with a $1.6-billion taxpayer-guaranteed loan and is run by a consortium of companies that include BrightSource Energy, NRG Energy, and Google.
