Abstract
The solar field of a solar tower system consists of heliostats that reflect solar rays onto the receiver. In the video, several types of heliostats with different geometries and reflector areas are presented. In addition, we talk about the energy loss mechanisms occurring at the heliostats and in the solar field. This open educational resource is part of "OER4EE - technologies for the energy transition".
