The U.S. Department of Energy (DOE) Solar Energy Technologies Office (SETO) announced the Concentrating Solar-Thermal Power (CSP) Fiscal Year 2022 Research, Development, and Demonstration (RD&D) funding program, which will award up to $25 million for innovative...
The SolarPACES Task IV:Solar Heat Integration in Industrial Processes advances international research into industrial processes requiring heat at up to about 500°C. But as solar research in processes requiring heat at up to 1,500°C is maturing, Task IV has now...
There aren’t many novel clean energy technologies that could also directly remove fossil energy plants. The US National Renewable Energy Laboratory (NREL) has created one. Long duration storage at grid scale is crucial to meeting climate targets. Solar PV and wind...
Namibia to follow Moroccan clean energy policy to cut CSP developer risk
The largest clean energy investor and developer in the world built the Three Gorges Dam China Three Gorges Renewables - the developer and builder of the 22.5 GW Three Gorges Dam in China - will develop three of China's planned new 100 MW Concentrated Solar Power (CSP)...
Could giant coal and nuclear developers build CSP? In China, yes
High wind loads increase structural design costs of concentrating solar power (CSP) collector structures, such as heliostats and parabolic troughs. In a new two-year project, the National Renewable Energy Laboratory (NREL) will work with the Department of Energy...
Drone monitoring of solar fields is already established for photovoltaic solar. Now a new DLR spinoff - Volateq.de brings drone technology to the very different challenges of monitoring solar field performance, for concentrated solar power (CSP). “There's a lot of lot...
