As your link points out, solar thermal plants in So. Cal. have been sucking up tax payer dollars for 30+ yrs. They are quite impressive but I'm bemused by Hollywood environmentalists who find it abhorrent that people drive freely on BLM land but it's ok to cover several sq miles with these solar plants.

The plants will never be viable w/o subsidies.
