Aerial photography of Crescent Dunes Solar Energy Project, located near Tonopah, Nevada. Crescent Dunes Solar is Solar Reserve's 110MW concentrated solar thermal power plant with molten salt storage. Crescent Dunes has a ten hour molten salt storage capacity that allows the plant to collect the thermal energy of the sun during the day, then create electricity as the grid demands it. This is part of a multi-year project called Changing Perspectives that is examining renewable energy development around the world.
