Solar power is by far the Earth's most available energy source, easily capable of providing many times the total current energy demand.Solar power plants supply power to the electricity grid.
These plants can have acombined capacity of >100 megawatts (MW). Parabolic-Trough and Heliostate Solar Power Towers are the most developed concentrating solar power (CSP) technologiesrealized up to date.
Heliostate Solar Power Towers use thousands of individual suntracking mirrors to reflect solar energy onto a central receiver located on top of a tall tower.
The receiver collects the sun's heat in a heat-transfer fluid that flows through the receiver.
