Thermal Solar Goes Where PVs Can’t

Cars That Think

In recent years, however, CSP development stalled amid the rapidly falling cost of solar PV. Inside the tower, molten salts are heated to 565 °C and flow down into storage tanks, turning water into steam to drive turbines. Today, nearly 120 projects operate worldwide, and Spain claims more than a third of total installed capacity.
