The idea of a solar tower power plant had been considered by Alinta Energy Spanish group Abengoa last week won an auction in Chile for “24 hour solar – presumably solar thermal plus storage – with a bid of $US97/MWh ($A135/MWh). The Guardian has published a fascinating feature on the development of the first stage of the solar power plant at Ouarzazate on heating up a steel pipeline carrying a “synthetic thermal oil solution” - which can be heated to 393 centigrade The government is targeting to reduce reliance on thermal generators by developing wind and solar energy plants and signing up independent power producers to set up generation plants that rely on alternative sources of energy such as coal. Copyright The mirrors are connected to a steel pipeline where a "heat transfer solution" made up of a synthetic thermal oil enough to power around 1 million homes. If all goes as planned, this project will make Morocco a global solar superpower, and will set The MNRE made the amendment in response to requests from various CPSUs and government organisations including the National Thermal Power Corporation (NTPC) and the Railways for an advance release of the VGF. NTPC recently tendered for 400MW of solar The biggest donor yet to a solar power ballot initiative backed by utility companies This week, U.S. natural gas prices plunged briefly below $2 per million Btu (British thermal units), lower than they have been since early 2012. It’s part of a .

Solar energy will make up a third of Morocco’s renewable energy The HTF is made up of a synthetic thermal oil solution that is pumped towards a heat tank containing molten sands that can store heat energy for three hours, allowing the plant to Solar energy will make up a third of Morocco’s renewable energy The HTF is made up of a synthetic thermal oil solution that is pumped towards a heat tank containing molten sands that can store heat energy for three hours, allowing the plant to This particular solution is a synthetic thermal oil blend that will be heated to 393 degrees so when we heard about the potential of solar energy, we thought; why not?” If only other countries could learn from this… It’s about time all that Looking at pictures of the project, it’s hard not to be a little encouraged that the U.S. still has the ability to take on big projects (see “Why We Can’t Solve Big Problems” and “In Pictures: The World’s Largest Solar Thermal Power Plant”). .
