European researchers are preparing to install automated dry-cleaning and sensor technology at operational Concentrated Solar Power plants that will cut water usage, labor costs and stabilize reflectance levels. New technologies that reduce water consumption are set to cut costs and limit the environmental impact of CSP plants in the coming years. Europe’s 12.6 million-euro SOLWARIS …

New technologies that reduce water consumption are set to cut costs and limit the environmental impact of CSP plants in the coming years. Europe’s 12.6 million-euro SOLWARIS initiative will be a key driver of new solutions and project partners will soon bring advanced heliostat and mirror cleaning innovations, and power block cooling systems, to operational …

Morocco follows lowest ever CSP price with fresh tender Morocco has launched a tender for the 230 MW Noor Midelt II CSP-PV plant in central Morocco, following the recent allocation of the 800 MW Noor Midelt I project to an EDF-led consortium at a record-low price of 68 dirhams/MWh ($71/MWh). Developers will have until September …
