Many previous studies have suggested that Concentrating Solar Power (CSP) could make it by employing thermal energy storage (TES)[1]. In a CSP plant with TES, solar radiation is concentrated onto a receiver, where the solar energy is converted to thermal energy. A part of the thermal energy is directly utilized to produce high-temperature steam
Concentrated solar power (CSP) uses mirrors to concentrate solar rays. These rays heat fluid, which creates steam to drive a turbine and generate electricity. CSP is used to generate electricity in large-scale power plants. By the end of 2020, the global installed capacity of CSP was approaching 7 GW, a fivefold increase between 2010 and 2020.
