A solar power tower, also known as a central receiver system, represents a large-scale method for converting sunlight into usable electricity. This technology, a type of Concentrating Solar Power (CSP), uses an array of mirrors to focus the sun's energy onto a central point.

This overview will focus on the central receiver, or “power tower” concentrating solar power plant design, in which a field of mirrors - heliostats, track the sun throughout the day and year to reflect solar energy to a receiver that absorbs solar radiation as thermal energy.
