Photographer's note: "The 540 foot (165 meter) high tower at the center of Crescent Dunes Solar's plant is where the sun's thermal energy is directed to a black target area atop the tower. This is where molten salt pumped up from below is heated to 1050°F (566°C). On site photo, Crescent Dunes Solar, near Tonopah, Nevada, USA."
