As the globe warms, the hottest places may be able to generate the most power through solar—particularly solar wind tower electric-power-generation plants, providing the hot places have water. At least hat's the premise put forward by supporters of this "concrete collossus," as some are calling it. This technology is one of many promising new ideas that point toward a solar-powered future, as we've suggested in our year-long Celestia Project, looking at innovation that's leading us toward a green "ecotopia" by the year 2100.
What is a Solar Wind Tower?
San Luis, Ariz., describes itself as the “gateway to the Sea of Cortez.” Located southwest of Yuma, between the Mexican border and the Colorado River, it will break ground on a solar wind tower power plant in 2015.
