Summary[edit]
| Description |
English: CSIRO is building the largest solar-power tower of its type in the world at the National Solar Energy Centre in Newcastle. The site will consist of around 450 mirrors (heliostats) that will direct solar heat onto a 30m-high tower to produce super-heated compressed air for a Brayton Cycle turbine. Most solar thermal power stations require water to operate a steam turbine to produce electricity. The Brayton Cycle technology does not need water. This technology is therefore ideally suited to many parts of Australia that only receive minimal rainfall. |
