Concentrated Solar Power Market Size by Technology, Component, Application
Concentrated Solar Power (CSP) plants use mirrors to concentrate the sun\'s thermal energy at temperatures ranging from 400 0C to 1,000 0C which is used in a conventional steam turbine to make electricity. This energy is subsequently used in a variety of applications, such as heating a fluid (water or oil), to produce steam or hot air. A CSP plant\'s concentrated thermal energy can be stored and used to generate electricity whenever it is needed.
