CRESCENT DUNES SOLAR ARRAY
The Crescent Dunes Solar Energy Project is a 110 megawatt (MW) netsolar thermal power project with 1.1 gigawatt-hours of energy storage,located near Tonopah, about 190 miles (310 km) northwest of Las Vegas.It is the first utility-scale concentrating solar power (CSP) plant with a central receiver tower and advanced molten salt energy storage technology from SolarReserve. The project includes 10,347 heliostats that collect and focus the sun's thermal energy to heat molten salt flowing through an approximately 640-foot (200 m) tall solar power tower. The molten salt circulates from the tower to a storage tank, where it is then used to produce steam and generate electricity. Excess thermal energy is stored in the molten salt and can be used to generate power for up to ten hours, including during the evening hours and when direct sunlight is not available.The storage technology also eliminates the need for any backup fossil fuels, such as natural gas. Each heliostat is made up of 35 6×6 feet (1.8 m) mirror facets, yielding a heliostat overall usable area of 1,245 square feet (115.7 m2). Total solar field aperture adds up to 12,882,015 square feet (1,196,778 m2).
