This technology is quite amazing. I guess it's suited to areas where the sun shines regularly.The video was made a year ago so I wonder how much further development has been made?

CSIRO has designed and built Australia's largest solar thermal research facility which consists of a 30 metre high solar tower (the tallest in Australia) and high temperature receiver, and a 4000 square metre field of 450 heliostats. The facility is capable of concentrating solar energy at temperatures beyond 1000 ºC.

I saw this on another site, I believe. It is very progressive and is moving along, as far as I remember about the article.
