These plants use the energy from the sun. There are two main types of installations: photo-thermal and photovoltaic power plants.
Photo-thermal power plant
In this type of power plant, the heat generated by solar radiation produces steam that is used to move the rotor in the generator.
To do this, they use special mirrors, called heliostats, that reflect sunlight and concentrate it at one point, where it reaches a high temperature.

Photovoltaic power plant
In these power plants, solar radiation is transformed directly into electricity by panels of photovoltaic cells.
These power plants consist of large areas of photovoltaic panels.
