Innovation shaping the future of solar power
Today, the most common method of harvesting solar energy is photovoltaic solar (PV), which uses solar cells to convert sunlight directly into electrical power. A CSP tower on the other hand, uses mirrors and lenses to concentrate sunlight towards a solar receiver, which is then used to generate and store high-temperature heat through a heat transfer fluid. This heat can then be used immediately ei

Rediscovering Concentrated Solar Power: story from China
Start of new series of articles with new data on CSP power plant. Recentlysome media, such as Energyskeptic, falsely accused CSP technology of being unreliable, full of glitches and having a low energy return. Theiropinion refers to certain early development faults of the technology, mainly based on the US experience, where new CSP stations have not been built since 2015. Indeed, all power product
