Opening markets for Concentrated Solar Thermal Power – the industrial heat application Heavy industry can be a viable secondary market today for CSP producers, but questions remain on whether start-up costs are justifiable for industrial users, and how reliable CSP can be for processes that can’t pace production by the sun. Solar thermal heat implies [...]
July of this year, the President announced additional measures to support the creation of clean energy jobs in the United States. Through the Recovery Act and other measures, the Obama Administration already has put tens of thousands people to work on clean energy projects and programs, while making transformational investments in the future of our [...]
Solar thermal energy is a technology for harnessing solar energy for thermal energy (heat). Solar thermal collectors are defined by the USA Energy Information Administration as low-, medium-, or high-temperature collectors. Low temperature collectors are flat plates generally used to heat swimming pools. Medium-temperature collectors are also usually flat plates but are used for creating [...]
