Cerro Dominador Solar Thermal Plant in María Elena, Chile, was constructed between 2014 and 2021. The plant uses 10,600 heliostat mirrors — arranged in a circle roughly 2 miles (3.2 km) across — to concentrate solar radiation on a central tower receiver, where heat is transferred to molten salts. Heat is then passed on to water, generating superheated steam that feeds a turbine and generates electric energy. Chile has set a target to produce 20% of its electricity from clean energy sources by 2025.Click the image below to watch a Timelapse video on Instagram.
