What happens when you aim thousands of mirrors at one target? This is [music] a concentrated solar power plant.
Thousands of mirrors called heliostats constantly track the sun and reflect its light toward [music] a single point at the top of the central tower. The concentrated sunlight creates extreme heat [music] reaching around 565Β° C and turning the tower's receiver into a brilliantly glowing artificial sun. This intense heat produces [music] massive amounts of steam, which spins turbines to generate electricity for thousands of homes.
