	Anyways I've noticed that in your calculation you have a 8% ~~efficienty~~ sterling. Mainstream steam turbines are about 40% efficient that are used in coal fire plants. And there are new turbines, from small companies, that claim 80% efficiency!! More then one, and I've looked at these and do believe they're not lying.

	One thing that you might have missed in your ~~calcultion~~ is that the generator and turbine capacity has to be set for the ~~maximun~~ sunshine, so they have to be rated much higher then the average output power.
