Claim:
1. A power generation system, comprising: a heat collector configured to collect heat; a heat transferor disposed in the ground, the heat transferor being configured for a flow of a working gas therethrough; at least one molten salt container containing a molten salt therein, the at least one molten salt container being disposed in the heat transferor the at least one molten salt container comprising a linear tube having an upper section and a lower section; a heat exchanger connected to the upper section of the at least one molten salt container, the heat exchanger transferring heat from the heat collector to the molten salt in the at least one molten salt container, whereby the at least one molten salt container heats the working gas; a turbine connected to the heat transferor, the turbine generating mechanical energy using energy of the heated working gas; and a power generator connected to the turbine, the power generator generating electrical energy using the mechanical energy; wherein upper and side surfaces of the heat transferor are grouted such that the working gas that has entered the heat transferor is prevented from exiting via the upper and side surfaces.
