I'd like to see one of these flaming birds from the linked story http://io9.gizmodo.com/a-test-of-nevadas-solar-tower-project-torched-over-a-hu-1686790231 in that article.

Not a good time to be a bird. If you do manage to avoid getting eaten by a cat, you might be scattered by a wind mill or smoked by a solar farm.

Ive looked and cant find anything, I was curious about the output/space and the output/cost ratios of this sort of solar power plant vs electricity producing panels. Driving through Mojave I saw a few farms of the sun to electricity panels.

Been a general failure to date, meeting none of the predicted/expected performance metrics. In keeping with most of Barry's green initiatives. I'll have to go find the links to that....

Great sources.

A Blog & a local paper talking about one plant having issues!

Why don't you post some links to "reputable" sources about solar plants that ARE meeting expectations?
