I feel like I could like these guys: it seems to me that it's the right name, Christ the King in the Desert. They're the real deal.
This is super cool,
Since the monastery is over 13 miles from the nearest power line, bringing in commercial electricity would have been tremendously expensive. Instead, the monks decided to use energy from the desert sun to generate their electricity on-site. These solar arrays gather energy throughout the day and store it in batteries. The batteries then provide uninterrupted power to the monastery 24 hours a day.
