    Abstract : Concentrating Solar Power (CSP) is one of the most promising renewable energybased electricity generation technologies to deal with the increasing demand of power consumption and environmental sustainability. With the aim of achieving the 2020 SunShot cost target for CSP of 60 USD/MWh, the United States Department of Energy presented, in May 2018, the Gen3 CSP initiative. READ MORE

  3. 2. Dispatch Optimizer for Concentrated Solar Power Plants

    University essay from Uppsala universitet/Byggteknik och byggd miljö

    Author : Gilda Miranda; [2020]
    Keywords : Concentrated Solar Power; optimization; dispatch; thermal energy storage;

    Abstract : Concentrating solar power (CSP) plant is a promising technology that exploits direct normal irradiation (DNI) from the sun to be converted into thermal energy in the solar field. One of the advantages of CSP technology is the possibility to store thermal energy in thermal energy storage (TES) for later production of electricity. READ MORE
