I wonder what it is; Sterling engine? Not Stirling .. solar troughs .. long parabolic mirrors with a 'heat transfer fluid' running thru a pipe at the focal point of the mirrors .. heated to 400 C to make steam .. steam to turn turbine to make electricity .. It's been the longest running solar thermal project .. the Luz company went bankrupt ( not sure why ?? ) and then the Israeli company bought it .. so it's not their technology though I'm sure they've made some improvements over the years .. Google "solar Luz project" Triff ..
