This 8ft. parabloc dish is runing a rotary steam engine inside the boiler with hot water. This is a test demonstration of prototype engine we knew it would run, but we didnt know it would run so fast..
Specs are not available yet. Check out www.acrosolarlasers.com for more info these parabolic dishes can heat your home, hot water, pool or spa..

  • The boiler is not silver its just the reflection caused from the sun.. The actual boiler is copper tubing painted black, with water running through it.. This was not are actual boilers on the market that come with our units. This was a prototype boiler outfitted with a steam engine inside it..

  • isn't better a solar panel?

  • no this parabolic is way more efficient..

  • @Loko915 It totally ceases to function on an overcast day or any time a cloud passes overhead. This is the reason why this technology cannot be used on a worldwide scale.

  • @isrsan

    Solar panels can only use the red/infra red spectrum, this device turns the WHOLE spectrum into heat then into steam energy, then to electricity.

  • Hi!

    Love it!!! California needs to invest more in green tech...Prop 23 is down in the polls, but the Yes on 23 campaign just got a new influx of hot, anonymous cash, so we'll need to fend them off in the home stretch to Election Day.

    Hit me back if you'd like to talk Prop 23. We're coming out with a bunch of great No on Prop 23 videos soon!

  • With energy costs constantly increasing, governments are looking to solar energy as a viable option to meet growing energy needs. The biggest advantage of taping the sun's energy is that it greatly reduces our dependence on fossil fuels. Pacific Crest Transformers has more information on this. You can also read whitepapers and articles on alternate energy at the Pacific Crest Transformers website.

  • this is WAAAY better than hydrogen production

  • Hmmm... glad my neighbors don't have one!

  • Good gravy if I had to listen to that banshee racket all day I'd go nuts. How about a piston steam engine instead?

  • Whats the rotary steam engine look like?

  • Steam, of course.

  • Truly the sun is our future on obtaining energy to survive in this planet, but not trough solar power, as you see, it has a very high cost to make an efficient solar power engine, and obviously doesnt work at night, and will not suply power on the cloudy days as well.

    But, why can't we create a sun right here on earth, yes...the future is the Fusion energy, if the sun uses it, why can't we use it too, it liberates a tremendous amount of energy just by fusioning 2 atoms of heavy hydrogen.
