Solar updraft tower <ref>http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Solar_updraft_tower</ref>
Advantages
- Life span = 80 years. <ref>http://social.csptoday.com/technology/solar-updraft-tower-technology-not-all-hot-air</ref>
- Low maintenance costs.
- Produces greenhouse areas that can be used for agriculture.
- Produces energy at night (at a reduced rate) <ref>http://www.architecture.mit.edu/sites/all/files/attachments/lecture/SolarUpdraftTower_Project.pdf</ref>
- Produces energy when overcast <ref>http://www.architecture.mit.edu/sites/all/files/attachments/lecture/SolarUpdraftTower_Project.pdf</ref>
- May be able to desalinate water via condensation <ref>http://inhabitat.com/solar-updraft-towers-in-namibia/attachment/14194/</ref>
Disadvantages
- Takes up a relatively large amount of space.<ref>http://educypedia.karadimov.info/library/Solar%20Updraft%20Towers.pdf</ref>
Economic analysis
- Cost per Watt of capacity = 4 EUR <ref>http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Solar_updraft_tower</ref>
