I thought it was 375,000. That equates to 375,000 stepper motors to keep running in the heat and dust and high winds in Ivanpah. They really need your robots for washing Jed. Otherwise I was guessing about 50 tractors/fuel required full time to keep them all washed each month not to mention where you are going to get all the water.
I think the tortoises and their $20M relocation program made out the best on that deal. Not the taxpayer who has footed the bill for $2.2B Makes for some pretty pictures though.
