One way of generating electricity from solar energy involves the collection and storage of solar energy in large artificial lakes of a few meters deep, called solar ponds Solar energy is stored at the bottom part of the pond at temperatures close to boiling, and the rise of hot water to the top is prevented by planting salt to the bottom of the pond Write an essay on the operation of solar pond power plants, and find out how much salt is used per year per m2 If the cost is not a factor, can sugar be used instead of salt to maintain the concentration gradient Explain
