http://www.torresolenergy.com/TORRESOL/gemasolar-plant/en The Gemasolar power plant near Seville, Spain generates baseload electricity from the sun 24 hours a day. It stores heat in molten salt tanks to power the steam turbines when the sun is not shining.

The Zero Carbon Australia plan shows how Australia can shift to 100% renewable within 10 years, using 60% solar thermal with salt storage and 40% wind. http://zerocarbonplan.org
