This doesn't make a lot of sense to me: shouldn't Solar Plant
just be an "electricity provider" of the same sort as 
Hydro/Power/Nuclear?  Why would it give even more production?
And I'm not sure it should eliminate _all_ pollution?  
If it does, that makes Mass Transit and Recycling a bit 
useless, doesn't it?  

Are these rules based on Civ2?  If so maybe this could be 
activated in a separate civ2/buildings.ruleset, rather
than putting it straight into 'default'.
