Molten salt melt starts for huge 700 MW DEWA CSP project

The giant 700 MW project in Dubai will combine tower and trough technologies and use scale and local infrastructure synergies to set a new benchmark price of $73/MWh for CSP with storage,

Parabolic Trough

Parabolic trough technology is currently the lowest-cost CSP option for electricity production; however, unsubsidized electricity from troughs still costs about twice that from conventional

Parabolic Trough CSP in the Real World: 5 Uses You''ll

Unlike photovoltaic solar panels, CSP with parabolic troughs offers the advantage of thermal energy storage, allowing power generation even when the sun isn''t shining.

Solana Generating Station

The Solana Generating Station is a solar power plant near Gila Bend, Arizona, about 70 miles (110 km) southwest of Phoenix. It was completed in 2013. When commissioned, it was the
