http://www.alt-energy.info/solar-power/is-molten-salt-the-secret-sauce-for-solar/ News and information about alternative and renewable energy, including wind power, solar power, hybrid cars, biofuel, fuel cells, hydrogen power, and climate change solutions Sat, 20 Mar 2010 01:36:17 +0000 http://wordpress.org/?v=2.9.1 hourly 1 http://www.alt-energy.info/solar-power/is-molten-salt-the-secret-sauce-for-solar/comment-page-1/#comment-93836 Esteban Cortez Wed, 03 Jun 2009 12:52:18 +0000 http://www.alt-energy.info/?p=1433#comment-93836 This is a very interesting article. As far as I'm aware there is a very similar plant in Spain that also uses circum-arrangement of mirrors facing a large absorption tower- it may even be sponsored by the same conglomerate. One aspect within solar technology that I am both fascinated by - and occupationally bound to as Assistant CIO at Dong Energy - is solar cogeneration. Scandinavia has a long tradition of Combined Heat and Power (CHP/Cogeneration) as an energy source attained from steam and power plants, but this new technology seems to be paving the way for a new adaptation of cogeneration principles. I am currently interested in what the industry’s online community have to say about solar cogeneration, so I would like to point out a discussion thread at http://www.meettheboss.com/Discussion.aspx?discussionID=306 where I would encourage all interested to contribute to the discussion, as proliferating information on cogeneration could lead to the uptake of this efficient power generation source across Europe.
