An emerging technology that uses mirrors to concentrate solar power is being reviewed by the electric utilities' industry association. The Electric Power Research Institute (EPRI) is evaluating concentrated solar, which uses reflectors to intensify the sun's rays to generate greater amounts of electricity.

Solar concentrating systems are being developed by Solaria, Soliant Energy, and others and have the advantage of producing more energy per square foot.

If EPRI concludes that the technology is feasible, you can look for many of the biggest utilities to start building plants.
