This is a list of power stations that are based on Solar thermal energy technology.
Operational
- Solar Energy Generating Systems, USA Mojave desert California, total of 354MW, parabolic trough design
- Nevada Solar One, USA Nevada, 64MW, parabolic trough design
- Lidell power station, Australia, 95MW heat, 35MW electrical equivalent as steam input for convential power station, Fresnel reflector design [1]
- PS10 solar power tower, Spain Seville, 11MW, power tower design
Under construction
- Andasol 1 solar power station, Spain, 50MW with heat storage, parabolic trough design
- Andasol 2 solar power station, Spain, 50MW with heat storage, parabolic trough design
- Solar Tres Power Tower, Spain, 15MW with heat storage, power tower design
Announced
- Mojave Solar Park, USA California, 553MW, parabolic trough design[2]
- 70 miles north east of Los Angeles, USA California, 500MW, dish design [3]
- Ivanpah, USA California, 400MW, power tower design [4]
- Imperial Valley, USA California, 300MW, dish design [5]
- San Luis Obispo, USA California, 177MW, Fresnel reflector design [6]
- Uppington, South Africa, 100MW, power tower design [7]
- Barswtow, USA California, 59MW with heat storage and back-up, parabolic trough design [8]
- Kuraymat Plant, Egypt, 40MW steam input for a gas powered plant, parabolic trough design [9][10]
- Hassi R'mel, Algeria, 25MW steam input for gas powered plant, parabolic trough design [11]
