Solar Thermal Energy uses a set of mirrors to focus sunlight onto a pipe and the it gets heated so the water boils into steam. The steam is then used to turn a turbine to create electricity. This idea is used within the Mojave desert and it produces electricity for 350,000 homes. The problem with Solar Thermal Energy is that it is only able to work while the sun is out, on cloudy days it will not create electricity.

Interested in having a solar electric system installed!

Though by getting a system installed you are able to take a government deduction on it.
