The central power plant housing the main electrical systems and control infrastructure for the entire solar complex. It contained advanced machinery for power conversion and distribution, plus a command center managing the electrical grid for the surrounding area.
In-game journal

The Solar Power Plant is the core building of the Solar Facility region. It once turned the site's energy into usable power, sent it out to the rest of the facility, and held the room from which the whole operation was run. The in-game map marks it as a safe zone.

Frozen bodies are the most common container around the plant, with 37 of them, followed by 24 Electric Boxes, plus suitcases, military crates, toolboxes and lockers. There are 5 Sulfur Boulders and 3 Iron Boulders close by, along with sleeping bags, beds, 2 workbenches, a stove, a tent and a campfire. Recipe notes here teach 12ga flare ammo, Batteries, the JPistol MK2, the Refined Iron Axe and the TR-22 Rudi. You can also pick up the recordings The Lost Wife #2 and #3 and Ethan's Past #2 and #3. Logan Boyce trades here, and The Mule turns up here at one point as the story goes on.

The Fast Travel: Solar Fields post stands at the plant. After a death the game offers a respawn at the nearest safe zone, so a death in this part of the map can bring you back here. Rat Queen's Crossing is about 150 m away in a straight line, Sonnenberg's Clinic about 290 m, and Horizon and The Dam about 320 m each.
