🇪🇸 A consortium led by Spanish renewable-energy companies Abengoa and Acciona connected a concentrated solar power (#CSP) unit to Chile's grid network in early April. The project is owned by U.S.-based EIG Global Energy Partners.

✍️ Despite our best efforts, humans are still far from capturing even a fraction of the sun's true energy potential. In fact, more than 10,000 times the earth’s total use of solar energy is striking the earth at any given moment.

📰 ☀️ Unlike other projects, this system does not use photovoltaic panels, but rather a series of 10,600 mirrors (heliostats), which reflect sunlight by concentrating the heat on a receiver located at the top of the tower, 250 meters.

🌞More than four years ago #NEXTOWER began a hopeful project that aimed to help the energy future of Europe thanks to the commitment of 19 partners spread throughout the continent.

Today, our journey ends, but many others will follow us, and we are proud of it!
