, 1981 Estimated production costs of solar energy systems serve as guides for future component development and as measures of the potential economic viability of the technologies. The analysis of heliostat costs is particularly important since the heliostat field is the largest cost component of a solar central receiver plant.

Optimization of Heliostat Fields for Solar Tower Systems [PDF]
, 2012 In this work, a geometrical model is used to evaluate the sun radiation reflected from the heliostats toward the aim point on the tower top, by taking into account the shading and blocking between neighboring heliostats.

Heliostat Clustering for Aiming Point Strategies Optimization
SolarPACES Conference ProceedingsThe performance of solar tower systems is closely linked to the aiming point strategy of the heliostats. The optimization process of obtaining the best aiming point strategy for a field is complex and has a high computational cost.
