Solar thermal-biofuel hybrid power

New power plants ordered by Pacific Gas and Electric Company in California will generate renewable power constantly using solar thermal plus steam turbines powered by biofuel from the nearby Central Valley. Thus they will be able to create electricity anytime, even when the sun isn’t out, and will each use a whopping 250,000 tons of agricultural waste, green waste, and animal manure annually as biofuel. Wow.
