      But the total pollution on the earth will not be reduce, but just spread to other countries.
      So China choose to update and invest the new green technologies. The solar system is one of them.

    I won't call it solar panel, they are mirrors, reflects the sunlight to the upper part of the tower.
    Those reflection panels are much lighter (easy to move), and cheaper . Also because you don't have to physically connect those panels to the tower, expand the farm, replace the mirrors are very easy. if one got broken, doesn't affect power generation. As the engineer said, the power generation from the tower can be very stable, and can be adjusted.

    The technically correct name for this installation is SOLAR THERMAL POWER PLANT.
    The panels are called SOLAR ENERGY COLLECTORS, with two functions. The reflectors (mirrors) capture the sunlight and the second function is to focus the sunlight onto a receiver (tower).
    I'm an electric engineer myself and yes, this installation is fantastic.
