阿基米德的这个5兆瓦示范工厂是世界上第一个在用熔融盐液，而不是转让合成油为热载体的工厂。
该工厂设施由联合循环燃气设施和抛物槽CSP生产线构成，能用于储存大量的熔盐，即使在阴雨天都能够正常工作。
这个用于priolo 电厂的技术是由意大利政府机构Enea和Archimede Solar Energy联合开发的，Archimede是Angelantoni Industrie 和Siemens Energy两家公司合并的合资公司。该公司在这个项目中占有45%的股份。
该管道计划于明年开始用熔盐技术生产太阳能接收器。
该工厂的太阳能接收器年生产能力约75000台，稍后这将增加至14万台。
The 5MW demonstration plant is the first in the world to use molten salts rather than synthetic oil as the heat transfer fluid.
The facility consists of both a combined-cycle gas facility and a parabolic trough CSP plant, as well as storage using tanks of molten salt, which allow continuous operation throughout the night and during cloudy weather conditions.
The technology used in the Priolo plant was developed by Italian government agency Enea and Archimede Solar Energy, a joint venture between Angelantoni Industrie and Siemens Energy, which has a 45% stake in the venture.
Plans are in the pipeline to begin producing solar receivers using the molten salt technology from early next year.
The plant will have an annual production capacity of approximately 75,000 solar receivers, which will later be increased to 140,000 per year.
Enel says the plant is called Archimede because of its rows of huge parabolic mirrors used to capture the sun's rays, which bear comparison to the "burning mirrors" Archimedes is said to have used to set fire to Roman ships besieging Syracuse during the Punic War of 212 BC.
