Solar thermal plants as alternative way to produce steam. Could use glass salt/oil in construction.

I think an interesting way to balance them could be to have the steam pressure change depending on the weather. That would require a more complex and interesting setup.
There could also be 2 tiers, the first is individual collectors that produce atmospheric, low or high steam depending on weather, and the second tier would have the classic collector tower setup, would require computing power (to calculate the mirror alignment), and would output low, high or super pressure steam depending on weather.
