Similar sentiments were expressed by Dr. Dieter Steinkamp RheinEnergie: With 3 Andsol RheinEnergie have invested in a production technique that could be developed in addition to the wind and water power for the European energy supply to a major supply components.

With the construction of Andasol 3 center was started in 2008. In July 2011, the participating CleanTech companies reported a successful Tesphase (see clean thinking: Andasol 3: Successful testing of solar thermal power plant). The project are particularly Stadtwerke München, RWE Innogy, RheinEnergie, Ferrostaal and Solar Millennium involved. To realize the company had a project company Marquesado Solar SL was founded.
