Solar Heat And Solar Water In Spain

The amount of solar energy reaching the surface of the planet is so vast that in

one year it is about twice as much as will ever be obtained from all of the Earth's non-renewable resources of coal, oil, natural gas, and mined uranium combined. Solar energy can be harnessed in different levels around the world. Depending on a geographical location the closer to the equator the more "potential" solar energy is available. Southern Spain, a region known the world over for its abundant sun and scarce rain, provides an ideal landscape for solar heat and solar water.

SolarBeam Concentrator is a solar hot water system that provides solar heating for businesses. It is a parabolic dish that is 4.5 meters wide and tracks the sun. The system creates solar water that can be used by hotels, beverage companies, hospitals, schools etc.

In Spain, the SolarBeam can produce a lot of solar water because the SolarBeam can create as much energy as 10-15 flat panels. The SolarBeam produces an average of 35,000 BTUs of solar heat per hour.

The country is one of the most advanced in the development of solar heat and solar water, and it is one of the sunniest regions of Europe with approximately 2650 hours of sunshine per year. The Spanish government committed to achieving a target of 12 percent of primary energy from renewable energy by 2010 with an installed solar generating capacity of 3000 megawatts(MW) The Nation is the fourth largest manufacturer in the world of solar power technology and exports 80 percent of this output to Germany.

Spain added a record 2.6 GW of solar power in 2008 increasing capacity to 3.5 GW. Total solar power in Spain was 4 GW by the end of 2010 and solar energy produced 6.9 terawatt hours, covering 2.7% of the electricity demand in 2010. Spain added 400 MW in 2010, taking the global lead with a total of 632 MW, while the US ended the year with 509 MW after adding 78 MW, including two fossilCSP hybrid plants.

The nation's total solar power production is now equivalent to the output of a nuclear power station. Protermosolar the association that represents the solar energy sector says that within a year another 600MW will have come on-stream and projects that by 2013 solar capacity will have reached 2,500MW. So as this small, sunny, solar superpower forges ahead setting standards for solar energy technology and commitment the rest of the world will hopefully follow suit.

It is fitting then that Southern Spain is the new home for the Solartron Headquarters.

Clients are encouraged to visit this new facility, train with the knowledgeable staff who offer close to 20yrs experience in the solar power industry and witness Solartron Systems state of the art equipment in this beautiful new setting. Join us as we advance boldly into the future of solar energy and renewable resources. The sooner we can all get on board the brighter that tomorrow will look on a global scale.
