I remember being a kid and making holes in paper with magnifying glass, even at that age it occured to me that people could use this for cooking, boiling water etc. There is soo much energy that comes down from the sun that is free and will not pollute our air, and the technology is here! Now it is time for politician to show real leadership on this. Obama is the first American president to open doors for this possibility and I hope for the world that he succeeds.

Oil will go back up once the glut is consumed. But by then, all the promises will be bankrupt...unless We Make It Happen. (Then oil will go down again). Just stick to our guns and demand concentrated solar thermal power that can provide 90% of baseload power...24/7 !

CSP can produce up to 60 times the energy required to build it. If 1/10 of global oil supply was used to make it, it would deliver up to 6 times said global oil supply in equivalent electricity!!!!!! Global e-car transition? Ya!

Hooray for renewable energy!

Too bad the US has to outsource these projects b/c american companies are too busy making SUVs.

This plant was built by a Texas contractor and is currently being expanded by local contractors.

Oil prices are decreasing right now (8-14-08), but that is just a ploy to try and get us to stop (thinking) about stuff like this. The oil companies play mind games with the public, prices over time look like an ac wave on an oscilloscope with ever escalating highs. Gas goes from $5.25 to $5.00 a gallon and people think they got a break, but that was their original goal, $5.00 a gallon. People need to open their eyes to this fact and put an end to BIG OIL. You GO Acciona!
