Abengoa to continue with Palen Concentrated Solar Power (CSP) project development
The Concentrated Solar Power (CSP) project will now incorporate Abengoa’s technology, including a large storage system, to better meet the needs of California. Abengoa’s new proposal will make use of the company’s molten salt tower with Thermal Energy Storage (TES) proprietary technology. TES is a proven technology that allows solar energy to be stored so … Continue reading Abengoa to continue with Palen Concentrated Solar Power (CSP) project development

Concentrated solar power (CSP) with storage could fill the gaps in intermittent renewable generation
Ivanpah is the largest concentrated solar power (CSP) plant in the world. Unlike traditional solar photovoltaic panels — which convert sunlight directly into electricity — concentrating solar power technology uses sunlight to heat water or another liquid, ultimately creating steam that can be used to turn turbines and generate electricity. Concentrated solar power has a … Continue reading Concentrated solar power (CSP) with storage could fill the gaps in intermittent renewable generation
