The SOLAR Project consists of the Solar One, Solar Two and Solar Tres solar thermal power plants based in the Mojave Desert, United States and Andalucía, Spain. The US Department of Energy (DOE) and a consortium of US utilities built the country's first two large-scale, demonstration solar power towers in the desert near Barstow, California.[1]
Solar One/Solar Two have been scrapped since 2009.[2] Solar Tres (later renamed Gemasolar), the first commercial plant of the project, was opened in Spain in 2011.
