2. Solar updraft tower - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Solar_updraft_tower

   The solar updraft tower (SUT) is a design concept for a renewable-energy power plant for generating electricity from low temperature solar heat. Sunshine heats the air beneath a very wide greenhouse-like roofed collector structure surrounding the central base of a very tall chimney tower. The resulting convection causes a hot air updraft in the ...

3. PS10 solar power plant - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/PS10_solar_power_plant

   The PS10 Solar Power Plant (Spanish: Planta Solar 10), is the world's first commercial concentrating solar power tower operating near Seville, in Andalusia, Spain. The 11 megawatt (MW) solar power tower produces electricity with 624 large movable mirrors called heliostats. [2] It took four years to build and so far has cost €35 million (US$46 ...

4. Stand-alone power system - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Stand-alone_power_system

   A stand-alone power system (SAPS or SPS), also known as remote area power supply (RAPS), is an off-the-grid electricity system for locations that are not fitted with an electricity distribution system. Typical SAPS include one or more methods of electricity generation, energy storage, and regulation. Electricity is typically generated by one or ...

6. Concentrated solar power - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Concentrated_solar_power

   A solar power tower consists of an array of dual-axis tracking reflectors (heliostats) that concentrate sunlight on a central receiver atop a tower; the receiver contains a heat-transfer fluid, which can consist of water-steam or molten salt. Optically a solar power tower is the same as a circular Fresnel reflector.

7. Ivanpah Solar Power Facility - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ivanpah_Solar_Power_Facility

   The local irradiance near the area is about 7.4 kWh/m 2 /day [49] [50] (annual average) for a total solar energy flow in the visible spectrum of 2.717 MWh/m 2 yearly. One heliostat mirror is a 75.6 square feet (7.02 m 2) reflecting surface, [51] giving a total of 151.2 square feet (14.05 m 2) per heliostat.
