BrightSource Energy, Inc. designs, develops, and deploys solar thermal technology to produce high-value electricity and steam for power, petroleum, and industrial-process markets worldwide. At BrightSource Energy, respect for the environment informs our every thought and action, from the technology we develop to the stewardship we practice.
BrightSource's system uses proprietary software to control thousands of tracking mirrors, known as heliostats, to directly concentrate sunlight onto a boiler filled with water that sits atop a tower. When the sunlight hits the boiler, the water inside is heated and creates high temperature steam.
Once produced, the steam is used either in a conventional turbine to produce electricity or in industrial process applications, such as thermal enhanced oil recovery (EOR).By integrating conventional power block components, such as turbines, with our proprietary technology and next-generation solar field design, projects using our systems are able to deliver cost-competitive, reliable and clean power when needed most.

Together with energy storage, BrightSource extends production, capacity - and the length of the day. Our solar plants, integrated with thermal energy storage, effectively extend electricity production into later parts of the day and after sundown, when it is valued most by utilities and other power producers.
Integrating a proprietary technology with conventional components to deliver highly reliable, renewable power. Software-controlled field of mirrors concentrate sunlight on a boiler mounted on a central tower. Optimization software and solar field integrated control system manage heliostat positioning to optimize concentrated sunlight on the boiler.
Solar steam - produced by concentrating solar thermal technology - continues to gain significant traction worldwide. Opportunities are expanding rapidly in markets including the Middle East/North Africa (MENA), China, Latin America, India and South Africa. Such opportunities are aided materially by policies designed to add far more renewable energy to meet the world's growing energy needs.
