Apple buys 100 acres of land for third North Carolina solar farm

Apple on Monday reached a deal with the city council of Claremont, N.C. to annex 100 acres of land for a new 17.5 megawatt solar farm, the construction of which is expected to cost some $55 million.

I'm really pumped about solar tech farms. They look much more pleasant than the War of the Worlds style Wind blades. What will Apple do with all the solar energy?
