GEMASOLAR is Torresol Energy’s first project to use central tower technology and heliostats. The plant incorporates significant technological innovations, including the solar receiver system, and also a molten salt thermal storage system, able to reach temperatures up to 565ºC. This is the first commercial plant to apply this type of technology in the world, and is therefore of considerable importance in the field of renewable energies as it opens the path to a new thermosolar power generation technology which could be the best alternative to the parabolic trough type commercial thermosolar power stations currently being built.
