The Ashalim Solar Thermal Power Station is a concentrated solar power facility located in Israel's Negev Desert. It uses around 50,000 computer-controlled mirrors (heliostats) to concentrate sunlight onto a 240-metre tall solar receiver tower. The concentrated heat produces steam to drive turbines and generate electricity, contributing about 310 MW combined capacity, enough to power roughly 120,00
