How does this compare to, for example, https://www.promes.cnrs.fr/index.php?page=concentrateurs-solaires https://www.promes.cnrs.fr/index.php?page=concentrateurs-sol... (3000°C)? I personally visited one such site in Southern France more than 30 years ago.

That's a research/materials testing facility. Heliogen is aiming for industrial applications which means it has to scale more cheaply than a bespoke installation.

  So the breakthrough is really in production methods of the facilities?
