Solar Power Tower sent on April 15, 2022 (11:05) by Juza. 33 comments, 5751 views. [retina]

at 82mm, 1/1600 f/8.0, ISO 160, hand held. Gemasolar Solar Power Tower, Spain.

Le Solar Power Tower sono rare centrali ad energia solare (ne esistono una decina al mondo) che utilizzano un principio totalmente diverso dal fotovoltaico: nelle power tower, un'enorme serie di specchi concentrici direzione la luce e il calore del sole in un unico punto, scaldando un liquido ad oltre 500 gradi per azionare una turbina. L'effetto dei raggi di sole che raggiungono la torre è insolito e pittoresco, anche se non sono esenti da critiche: gli uccelli che accidentalmente passano attraverso il fascio di luce vengono inceneriti all'istante.

To date, the yields of photovoltaics certainly make it more convenient. If abroad there is something (not even recent ...) and in Italy no, sometimes the reasons are only technical, there is no need to look for the usual retrothoughts ...
Congratulations to Juza for the photo. ;-)

Thanks to all for the comments :-)
Regarding the usefulness of these plants, I too would be very curious to see a comparison with photovoltaics ... all in all I think the latter is more efficient.
but to bring out the reflection of light in this way, did it have to be a humid day or with so much haze?

But was the light effect visible like this, to the naked eye?

The effect can also be clearly seen by eye (even without haze), although in the photo I have increased the contrast a little to accentuate it.

Now I do not know the data well, but the big advantage of these plants is that they store energy in the form of heat in this mixture of molten salts and therefore manage to produce electricity even when the sun goes down, making production more constant and continuous.
The photo is really fascinating, congratulations

The shot of the trip definitely. Really special. You have greatly enhanced the beams of light and the tower.
It would be from EP! :-D

The first realization in the world of a solar power plant with mirrors and tower is due to prof. Giovanni Francia who in the early 70s built in Genoa-Santilario the first working prototype capable of producing electricity. Following the success and in the wake of the energy crisis, he was commissioned by Ansaldo to build the Adrano plant in Sicily and one in California. The untimely death of France in 1980 gave the opportunity to shelve the project in favor of fossil fuels. Rubbia later resumed the design development to improve efficiency and try to give continuity to production even in the absence of sun.

Three years ago I visited the Ouarzazate plant in Morocco.
It's impressive! it manages to meet more than 40% of the nation's electricity demand.
Seen from a distance it looks like the tower of Mordor in the Lord of the Rings :-D
