Gemasolar - Commercial-Scale Plant Brochure

Gemasolar is the world’s first commercial-scale plant that applies the technology of a central tower receiver and thermal storage with a single thermal fluid (molten salts). The relevance of this plant resides in its technological uniqueness, as it paved the way towards a new, more efficient technology for thermosolar power generation, providing greater prospects for reducing prices in the future. It also provides significant environmental benefits thanks to its use of a single thermal fluid, with an inorganic basis that is harmless to the environment, and whose handling is restricted to a minimum portion of the area occupied by the plant.
