    Description

    A 20-metre-high tower is surrounded by a solar field of 33 heliostat mirrors in three concentric rings, which adjust their angle to track the movement of the sun while directing the reflected light to the top of the tower. Lining the top of the tower is a 45-mirror array that redirects the light from the heliostats towards a receiver at the tower’s base.
