Description	The Ivanpah Solar Electric Generating System in California is a large solar thermal power plant using heliostats to concentrate sunlight onto solar towers. Developed by BrightSource Energy and Bechtel Corporation, it was a billion-dollar prestige project intended to demonstrate large-scale solar energy. However, it has underperformed in power output and cost-effectiveness, leading to partial shutdown plans. Researchers propose adding gigantic salt storage to improve cost-effectiveness and enable continuous power generation.
