I dunno if “power plant” quite fits for solar and wind

Why not?

Fossil fuel power plants merely convert chemical energy into another type.

    Just that "power plant" I think most people associate with large enclosed facilities that house power generating equipment, which doesn't quite describe wind and solar farms. Hence that most people refer to them as "farms".
