- Rotating mirrors track the sun to get the most sunlight
- Pipes carry cold water to be heated into steam by sunlight
- Steam goes through a pipe to a storage tank
- The steam from the storage tank turns a turbine-generator
- The turning of the turbine-generator makes electricity. The electricity goes to transmission lines and then to houses, schools, and other things that use electricity, or it is stored.
- Source of cold water that can be heated to make steam
