Generation 3 Concentrating Solar Power Systems

Generation 3 Concentrating Solar Power Systems NREL is defining the next generation of concentrating solar power (CSP) plants through integration of thermal energy storage technologies that enhance system

Concentrated solar power

OverviewCurrent technologyComparison between CSP and other electricity sourcesHistoryCSP with thermal energy storageDeployment around the worldCostEfficiency

CSP is used to produce electricity (sometimes called solar thermoelectricity, usually generated through steam). Concentrated solar technology systems use mirrors or lenses with tracking systems to focus a large area of sunlight onto a small area. The concentrated light is then used as heat or as a heat source for a conventional power plant (solar thermoelectricity). The solar concentrators use

Thermal Storage System Concentrating Solar

One challenge facing the widespread use of solar energy is reduced or curtailed energy production when the sun sets or is blocked by clouds. Thermal energy storage provides a workable solution to this challenge. In a concentrating solar

Concentrating Solar Power Basics | NREL

However, a new generation of power plants use concentrating solar power systems and the sun as a heat source. The three main types of concentrating solar power systems are: linear concentrator, dish/engine, and
