System for generating electrical power from low temperature steam

A system for the generation of electrical power including:

• a solar collector for heating water using solar energy, the heated water stored in a first tank;
• a vessel connected to the first tank through a first pipe and having a headspace within which the heated water is sprayed to thereby generate steam, a headspace pressure being lower than atmospheric pressure, the water not converted to steam collecting in a pool at a bottom of the vessel;
• a first pump pumping the water from the pool and into the first tank through a second pipe;
• a third pipe piping the steam to a partial admission turbine;
• a condenser located at a bottom of the turbine including a plurality of water outlets to spray water from a second tank into the condenser to condense the remaining steam into water;
• a second pump that pumps the water from the bottom of the partial admission turbine through a fourth pipe into the second tank;
• wherein a flow rate of the water through the first pipe is at least initially smaller than a flow rate through the second pipe thereby causing a reduction in the pressure in the headspace;
• and
• wherein steam drives the partial admission turbine which drives an electrical generator.
