most peopel here are probably familiar with the basic idea idea of the solar tower.
Rather than building the solar tower as a stand-alone structure,
why not design a high-rise office or apartment building around a central shaft which would function as a soler tower?
The area under the collector
could function as a car park.
The building's airconditioners and elevators et cetera could dump their waste heat into the central shaft allowing some of their energy to be recovered.

[21 Quest]: I guess [Iangould] is talking about one of those towers harvesting turbine power from rising hot air, your idea is not. |

It would seem this idea needs an office building surrounded by lots of desert, which, even in Dubai, does not happen. Office towers are in cities. |
