Molten salt storage tank at Crescent Dunes Solar, near Tonopah, Nevada: digital photograph

Date

2014-06-24

Description

Photographer's note: "A molten salt storage tank at Crescent Dunes Solar. The two storage tanks hold heated molten salt and allow the plant to produce electricity through the night. "Cold salt" is 550°F (288°C) and "hot salt" after it is heated by the receive at the top of the tower is approximately 1050°F (566°C). On site photo, Crescent Dunes Solar, near Tonopah, Nevada, USA."

The 540 foot (165 meter) high tower, Crescent Dunes Solar, near Tonopah, Nevada: digital photograph

Date

2014-06-24

Description

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."
