Desertec Concentrated Solar PowerIf just <strong>0.3%</strong> of the Saharan Desert was used for a concentrating solar plant, it would produce enough power to provide <strong>all of Europe</strong> with clean renewable energy. That is why 20 blue chip German companies are gathering together next month to discuss plans and investments to create such a massive project. Both the meeting and project are being promoted by the Desertec Foundation, which is proposing to erect <strong>100 GW</strong> of concentrating solar power plants throughout Northern Africa.1
