Solar thermal can be split into two different types; solar thermal energy systems (heating/hot water) and concentrated solar power plants (electricity production). This article looks at what concentrated solar power (CSP) actually is. If you would like information on solar thermal heating instead, you can find this here. What is Concentrated Solar Power? Concentrated solar …

Ellen B. Stechel, a professor of practice in the School of Molecular Sciences and co director of ASU LightWorks®, received $3.3 million for a project to develop long term storage for advanced concentrating solar-thermal power (CSP) plants. Year round, day and night, on demand power generation is the next solar frontier and essential to deep …
