      Nevada Solar One uses parabolic trough technology, so far the most economical system in use. It also happens to be right up the street (so to speak) from my house. I watched it being built, and snuck into the plant for a peek until the onsite security guy finished his donut and ran me off. I can't believe they gave that goof a gun.:suss: Still, he was nice about it. I'm working on getting our people here at the tribal power company a tour of the plant next Fall, since we may soon be building our own.:) (Shhh... you didn't hear that from me. I'm still spreading the rumor that the tribe is building a nuclear plant. We've got the river; we just need an active fault to build the facility atop.)

          I'm installing air-air heat exhanger based heating in my house at present - this basically uses solar heating and a heat pump to achieve nearly 400% efficiency. The units are pricey to buy compared to gas central heating but cheaper to run and I hope the govt. might consider a rebate or interest free load scheme to cover the extra hardware cost... Ideally I'd have gone with a ground source heat exchanger but don't have sufficient garden space :-(
