Thermal Solar Goes Where PVs Can’t

Cars That Think

Leading the boom is the photovoltaic (PV) panel, which converts sunlight into electricity using semiconductors. As electric utilities and policymakers seek solutions for storing and dispatching energy on demand, concentrating solar-thermal power (CSP) is once again gaining traction. Dubai, United Arab Emirates The massive US $4.4
