Technology coupling gains and a favorable development framework could see prices for Morocco’s pioneering Noor Midelt hybrid projects trend towards the lowest global CSP tariffs, experts told the CSP Madrid 2018 conference. Now entering the final stages of tendering, Morocco’s Noor Midelt hybrid CSP-PV project is expected to set a benchmark price for combined CSP …
Among China 1st batch of 20 concentrated solar power (CSP) demonstration projects, there are 9 Towers, 7 Troughs and 4 CLFRs, all of which were designed with huge capacity multi-hour storage system. One of the inherent targets of the implementation of CSP pilot projects is to encourage the application of new CSP technologies. There were …
