Physics Is Winning In Inner Mongolia

• Written on the plane back to the US. Thrilled after HelioFocus demonstration in Inner Mongolia China…

• The company placed a bet on physical efficiency first and cost reduction later (the Energy Points concept) – the only way to make solar truly competitive

• This system demonstrates that we were right

October 30 2013

HelioFocus site in Inner Mongolia The collectors remain stable and continue to track

the sun accurately despite the wind

Solar Thermal in Cold and Windy Weather The secret to wind resistance is the opening and Fresnel

optics that let the wind flow between the mirrors. Yanir’s invention proven right

Incredible Logistic To get to this point, Eric’s team aligned 700 suppliers

incredible logistics complications brining everything to Inner Mongolia

35 patents (in China?) from optics to heat logistics. Guirong makes sure that the company knows how to work in China

Oren deserves the real credit. The CEO that makes it all happen from the smallest detail to a full system.

The Israeli Ambassador to China Mathan Vilnai asks why we don’t have it in Israel? The answer is simple: three years just to get a permit in Israel – we will next year…

MOU fo 200MW…$340m subject to some things..

Amazing contrast between the very frontline of technology and traditional Mongolia. Not the place that one would imagine testing a complex unproven technology for the first time

Eating this poor lamb is part of the deal… (local tradition)

Drinking 40% alcohol is also part of the deal..
