Solar Turbine

Solar Turbine Generator is a device that uses steam from a Solar Power system to convert the sun’s heat into usable electric energy.

A solar turbine generator can absorb the sun’s heat using a concentrated solar panel system or a thermal solar panel.  In order for the sun’s light to be converted into electricity, a photovoltaic panel system must be used.  Solar power and solar turbine generators are a clean source of renewable energy.Click the links below or on the side of the page to discover more about solar power and solar turbine generators.
