Same technology got switched on in a 5MW plant in Sicily in summer 2010. http://www.guardian.co.uk/environment/2010/jul/22/first-molten-salt-solar-power Great that CA is catching up !

The two large silver tanks left of the tower are the storage vessels. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Solar_Project#Solar_Two Other than that, go molten salt!

Great idea! I heard this was demo'd smaller scale in the 1990s.....http://www.solarreserve.com/ Good luck with the widescale implementation! This looks awesome guys. Great idea!

Good luck with the widescale implementation!

But I guess only time will tell. I wonder if/when they'll come out with more consumer-based availability like the stuff they sell over at Organic Mechanic.com (http://organicmechanic.com/products/solar)? Probably wouldn't be as affordable would be my guess. Thanks for the post! Wow, if this is as efficient and cost effective as it sounds that would be great. But I guess only time will tell.
