Luke: But what about at night when there is no sun?

Millie: Well, they've managed to find a way to store the electricity produced during the day so it's no problem at night or even on cloudy days.

Tanya: So, there are no drawbacks then?

Millie: I didn't say that. One problem they do have is that a lot of the energy in the sunlight is lost in the form of heat from the collector, and then, of the remaining heat, a large proportion escapes from the top of the tower. But they're still worth the investment because, as I said, sunlight is free!
