Solar power tower is composed of several heliostats, tower with top situated receiver with the working fluid and the generator of the electrical energy. Heliostats are composed of several flat mirrors that focus concentrated sun irradiation onto the receiver. Each heliostat has its own mechanism for Sun tracking along two axis.
Solar Power Tower (SPT) produces electricity in an indirect way by the principle of Rankine cycle concept with regeneration, reheating concept. Solar power tower includes heliostat and concentrating solar power system. Solar energy in spite of being the most profuse energy source, it holds the shortcoming of available for only day time.
Solar tower power plants mainly include a heliostat, a receiver tower, a receiver, thermal storage, and a generator unit.
Solar power tower plants can also be hybridized with conventional fossil-fired plants like the natural gas combined-cycle and coal-fired or oil-fired Rankine plants. In hybrid plants, the solar energy can be used to reduce fossil fuel usage or boost the power input to the steam turbine.
