Thermal Solar Goes Where PVs Can’t

Cars That Think

As electric utilities and policymakers seek solutions for storing and dispatching energy on demand, concentrating solar-thermal power (CSP) is once again gaining traction. Solar-thermal systems use sun-tracking mirrors to reflect sunlight onto a receiver, which contains a high-temperature fluid that stores heat. It's flexible.

Report for IPCC finds renewables could supply up to 77% of global energy by 2050 under most optimistic scenario; need for enabling public policies and investments

Green Car Congress

Ranges of global technical potentials of renewable energy sources derived from studies analyzed in SRREN report. The authors reviewed more than 160 existing scientific scenarios on the possible penetration of renewables by 2050, alongside environmental and social implications; and then reviewed with four of these in-depth.
