Researchers Use Tethered-Balloon Tests Ensure Safety of New Solar-Power Technology What do tiny dust particles, 22-foot-wide red balloons and concentrated sunlight have in common? Researchers from Sandia National Laboratories recently used 22-foot-wide tethered balloons to collect samples of airborne dust particles to ensure the safety of an emerging solar-power technology. The study determined that the dust created by the new technology is far below hazardous levels, said Cliff Ho, the lead researcher on the project. Ho s team just received $25 million from the Department of Energy to build a pilot plant that will incorporate this technology. This next-generation renewable energy technology is called a high-temperature, falling-particle receiver for concentrating solar power. Concentrating solar power, while not as common as solar panels or wind turbines, has several advantages over those renewable energy sources, including the ability to store energy in the form of heat before
