Khalifa University of Science and Technology, a research university dedicated to the advancement of learning through the discovery and application of knowledge, and Wahaj Solar (Wahaj Investment L.L.C) today announced they have signed an agreement to test and verify a patented prototype in the Concentrated Solar Power (CSP) industry at the Masdar Institute Solar Platform …
In the early morning of January, as the snow covering the Atlas Mountains in central Morocco remains unmelted, the Chinese staff of the NOOR Concentrated Solar Power (CSP) projects in Ouarzazate, a city south of the mountain range, have already started a day’s work despite the freezing temperature. Photo taken on Jan. 10, 2018 shows …
Over 2 GW of Concentrated Solar Power is operating in the southwestern US. As growing amounts of PV and wind are added to the grid in that part of the US in response to the steady movement towards a carbon free grid, there is an opportunity for CSP to compliment these variable energy resources. Concentrated …
Global Concentrated Solar Power capacity is forecast to grow by 87%, or 4.3 GW, in 2018-2023, the International Energy Agency (IEA) said in its Renewables 2018 report published in October. This represents 32% faster growth than in 2012-2017. This baseline scenario includes 1.9 GW of new capacity in China, 1 GW of new projects in …
