[edit] Muddled
The Cloncurry plant uses the new technology of heat storage in blocks of purified graphite. The blocks are placed at the top of the tower. The concentrated light on the receivers of the towers is directly transported to these blocks. The heat for electricity production is drawn from the blocks (ie, there is no direct heat transport from the receiver).
I can't untangle this. Are the graphite blocks the receiver (so "no direct heat transport from the receiver" should be stricken) or are they heated by conduction or fluid (so "concentrated light on the receivers of the towers is directly transported to these blocks" should be stricken.) --207.245.10.213 (talk) 22:30, 7 April 2008 (UTC)
