Australia, despite its abundant solar energy resources, still heavily relies on fossil fuels for its electricity grid. However, a breakthrough in concentrated solar thermal (CST) research using ceramic particles could revolutionize renewable energy storage. The technology involves using mirrors to concentrate sunlight, converting it to heat, which can then be stored or used to generate …
