http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ivanpah_Solar_Power_Facility

"The Ivanpah Solar Electric Generating System, is a solar thermal power project currently under construction in the California Mojave Desert, 40 miles (64 km) southwest of Las Vegas, with a planned capacity of 392 megawatts (MW)."

"The total cost of the project is about $2.18 billion [$5,561.00 per KW]."

"Maximum capacity
392 MW
Annual generation
1,079,232 MWh"

"BrightSource estimates that the Ivanpah facility would involve some 1,000 jobs at the peak of construction, 86 permanent jobs"

That's without the workers having to wear spacesuits.
