The Big Solar Furnace is one of the world’s largest solar research facilities. Built in 1981, this monumental installation harnesses the power of the sun for cutting-edge science. The solar energy concentrator uses 10,700 mirrors to focus light reflected from an array of heliostats on to a single focal point. Today the facility is used for civilian research and specialist industrial orders
