Advantages of Solar pond

 

1. The heat storage is massive, so energy can be extracted day and night - hence it is a source of 'base load' solar power  - no batteries or other storage needed

2. Solar ponds can have very large heat collection area at low cost.

3. The major production potential is during peak electrical power demand (and price) in mid summer
