A global transition towards more sustainable production and consumption systems is underway. This transition process is particularly visible in energy systems, where modern renewables, majorly solar PV and wind power, accounted for around 10 % of global power production in 2020. It is widely believed that the transition to a low carbon economy would inevitably increase …
Zimbabwe could become a net exporter of power within the SADC region should the country harness the concentrated solar power potential of 39,5 gigawatts (GW), which far exceeds the country’s needs. The region is currently facing a power deficit, largely due to changes in hydrology issues, which have not spared Zimbabwe’s Kariba South Power …

Imagine tapping into the sun’s immense energy not with just a singular approach, but by marrying two synergistic technologies. Hybrid solar power plants stand at this intersection, seamlessly merging the strengths of concentrated solar power (CSP) and photovoltaic (PV) systems to maximize electricity production. This innovative combination is like having a renewable energy power team working together …
Do you want to become a mentor? Women+ in Concentrated Solar is starting a mentorship program for women and other underrepresented genders in the concentrated solar sector, to help our mentees grow as professionals. In a first step, we are looking for mentors (all gender identities welcome). Mentors will be expected to meet with their mentee(s) once a month for …

Competition between concentrated solar power and solar photovoltaic has been the subject of frequent debate in recent years based on their cost of fabrication, efficiency, storage, levelized cost of energy, reliability, and complexity of respective technologies. Taking Pakistan as a testbed, a study was conducted to determine which technology is economical in a particular location …
On September 8, the installation of two hot melt salt tank cooling pipelines for Tibet Zhabuye Integrated Energy EPC Project was completed, marking a significant progress in the engineering construction of the project. The project is the world’s highest altitude concentrated solar power station project, the site altitude of more than 4500 meters, is the …
