The Southern California Edison Company (SCE) has signed a contract with the Israeli high-technology solar energy company Luz Industries for the Israeli company to build, install and operate a 15,000 kilowatt solar energy electricity generating facility in San Bernardino County, California, Luz president Arnold Goldman told the press here.

The company will sell the electricity it generates to the California power company to help cover peak load requirements. The project will cost more than $100 million and will consist of some 1.2 million square feet of parabolic trough solar energy collectors spread over a 100-acre area.
