BrightSource Industries, formerly known as Luz II, designs and manufactures thermal solar power plants. These generate electrical power by using solar energy to convert water to superheated steam. Solar fields reflect sunlight onto a receiver located on the top of a Power Tower.

The first installation was built in Israel as a development facility, and was dedicated in June 2008.
