Photographer's note: "10,347 heliostats (mirrors) are part of the Crescent Dunes Solar project. Each heliostat is 34 feet tall, uses 35 mirrors, and has a surface area of 1258 square feet, or 115.7 square meters. The tower with its black receiver is in the background. On site photo, Crescent Dunes Solar, near Tonopah, Nevada, USA."

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."
