Info: SolarMission Technologies (www.solarmissiontechnologies.com) and its Australian subsidiary, EnviroMission Limited (www.enviromission.com.au) produced this 5 minute video on the pilot plant in Spain. It is an older video (2000) but gives a decent understanding of the solar tower concept. The designs have changed and technologies added, but it gives an introduction to the solar tower concept.
