A solar power tower, also known as 'central tower' power plant or 'heliostat' power plant, is a type of solar furnace using a tower to receive focused sunlight. It uses an array of flat, movable mirrors (called heliostats) to focus the sun's rays upon a collector tower (the target). Concentrating Solar Power (CSP) systems.

In power tower concentrating solar power systems, a large number of flat, sun-tracking mirrors, known as heliostats, focus sunlight onto a receiver at the top of a tall tower. A heat-transfer fluid heated in the receiver is used to heat a working fluid, which, in turn, is used in a conventional turbine generator to produce electricity. Some
Solar towers are huge constructions that are created by many segmented mirrors close to the ground and a great receiver placed centrally in a high position. The tower is used in power production applications and usually coupled to highly efficient power blocks. In 2010, Alexopoulos and Hoffschmidt (2010) performed a preliminary work about the possible operation of a solar
Solar tower systems are a renewable power source offering the important feature of cost-effective storage for daily load cycles. Such systems enable load shifting, i.e., collection of solar energy and production of electricity can be fully decoupled.

The Solar Power Tower is a large-scale solar thermal power system that uses mirrors to direct and concentrate sunlight into the tower-designed structure. Its early form uses a water-filled boiler to generate steam on top of it.
Solar panels, also known as photovoltaics, capture energy from sunlight, while solar thermal systems use the heat from solar radiation for heating, cooling, and large-scale electrical generation. Let''s explore these mechanisms, delve into solar''s broad range of applications, and examine how the industry has grown in recent years.
