Acciona SA Chairman Jose Manuel Entrecanales said solar thermal power plants, which use mirrors to capture the sun’s energy, have become cheaper than photovoltaic power in some parts of the world.

Solar mirrors are an economic alternative in mining areas in Australia that have high levels of sunlight, strong industrial power demand and are far from the conventional power grid, he said at a press conference in Madrid today. There are similar conditions in some parts of Latin America, he added.
