Mountainview began commercial operation in 2005. It was the first new major Los Angeles Basin power plant to be built in 30 years.
The plant's “combined-cycle” design allows it to operate efficiently. The six Mountainview turbines can produce a kilowatt of electricity using less than 7,000 Btu of fuel, compared to older plants which require 10,000 Btu or more.
