Almería Solar Platform

At the Almería Solar Platform Visitor Centre we invite you to discover the largest research centre in the world in the field of concentrating solar technology.
Here you can learn first-hand about the research projects that are currently underway in the following units:
* Concentrating solar systems for the production of photovoltaic electrical energy
* Solar desalination
* Solar water treatment
* Study of materials
* Energy efficiency in buildings
The Almería Solar Platform is currently considered to be a worldwide benchmark in the above-mentioned research areas, which is why it is visited every year by numerous groups of university students, schoolchildren, company delegations and tourists looking to get first-hand knowledge of technical developments in solar energy and its applications.
The tour takes about an hour and a half and includes showing a short video in the auditorium that seats 110 people.
Visits always need to be pre-booked by telephone (950 387 990) or by e-mail on visitas@psa.es and they can be made from Monday to Friday with possible visits at the weekend.
