San Luca la Mayor, near Seville, Spain.


The Solucar solar power plant in Sanlucar la Mayor near Seville, Spain

Just up the road from where we live (well a couple of hours drive away) are two rather impressive solar collector sites which are visible from a distance and, during daylight hours, look like something you would expect in a Lord of the Rings film.

Here are some more photos.

Here is the company web site. They are expanding their developments globally. Spain has a lot of sunshine and, given the global warming alerts that are being shouted about, it would seem to be a good thing to convert some more areas to 'sun gathering'...
