Abstract

A site near the village of Tabernas (in the Spanish province of Almería) was chosen [III,2.] for the construction of the two power plants. This site is also utilized by Spanish organizations interested in the development of solar technology and has therefore been given the name “Plataforma Solar”. The geographic location of the SSPS plants is 2° 23′W and 37° 06′N and the elevation is 500 m above sea level (Fig. 2).
