Solar tower research facility from the DLR Institute for Solar Research in Jülich
DLR's solar towers in Jülich are used for research and component testing based on point-focused solar technology. The left tower features solar air receiver technology; below it is the modifiable research level that currently houses a solar thermochemical reactor for hydrogen production. On the right is the multi-focus tower (MFT), which includes three research levels – molten salt, Synhelion and the particle research facility with the CentRec® particle receiver.
