Jed,
Does it count as a kill if there is no evidence left?
Ivanpah employees and OLE staff noticed that close to the periphery of the
tower and within the reflected solar field area, streams of smoke arise
when an object crosses the solar flux fields aimed at the tower. Ivanpah
employees use the

When OLE staff visited the Ivanpah Solar plant, we observed many streamer
events. It is claimed that these events represent the combustion of loose
debris, or insects. Although some of the events

What the Flux?
392 MW generated from steam turbine generators/30% Rankine Efficiency/85%
heat transfer efficiency @ solar boiler/90% mirror efficiency = 1700
megawatts airborne flux, THAT IS A GOOD BIRD ZAPPER

Close to the tower it would be. When a bird flies a few meters away from
the surface of one mirror, it is no
In high winds, mirrors go to flat position and all of the flux goes
incident and airborne. Ivanpah is a high wind area.

The mirrors would not be focused at one spot when idle. Also it is a
good idea to reduce global warming by directing the light back into space

Since it is near an airport I think it would be better to aim for the
ground.
