FAQ: Does this technology actually exist, or is this just a concept?

SolarReserve’s Chief Technology Officer explains the beginning stages of the technology.

SolarReserve’s lead project, the 110 megawatt (MW) Crescent Dunes Solar Energy Project is under construction in Nevada. Rocketdyne successfully demonstrated the molten salt power tower technology at Solar Two, a plant that operated in the 1990s in Daggett, California. The technology has continued to evolve since Solar Two; and recently the U.S. Department of Energy, who co-funded Solar Two, awarded Rocketdyne with another grant continue development of the technology. With this significant support, SolarReserve’s technology is ready for utility-scale development today.
