The power of concentration
On February 22nd, at an event featuring film stars, astronauts and technology gurus, Acciona, a Spanish conglomerate, is due to inaugurate a new power plant a few miles from Las Vegas. In fact, the plant has been running since last June. But the technology it uses, known as "concentrating solar power' (CSP), is hot right now, as the Hollywood luminaries might put it. Acciona's new plant, called "Nevada Solar One', can generate up to 64 megawatts (MW)
