CSP technology involves concentrating sunlight using mirrors or lenses to generate high temperatures, which can be used to drive turbines or produce steam for electricity generation.

In a Central Receiver System, a large number of mirrors (heliostats) are used to focus sunlight onto a central receiver located at the top of a tower.

Parabolic troughs are well-suited for large-scale power generation due to their modular design and ability to be easily scaled up.

Linear Fresnel Reflectors use a series of long, flat mirrors to concentrate sunlight onto a linear receiver.

Molten salt has a high specific heat capacity, which allows it to store a large amount of heat energy.

Dish Stirling systems use a dish-shaped concentrator to focus sunlight onto a Stirling engine, which converts heat into electricity.

Heliostats are designed to track the sun's movement throughout the day, ensuring continuous concentration of sunlight onto the receiver.

Central Receiver Systems use a tower and a large number of mirrors (heliostats) to concentrate sunlight onto a central receiver located at the top of the tower.

Power towers allow for the storage of thermal energy in molten salt, which can be used to generate electricity even when the sun is not shining.

Parabolic Trough systems use a parabolic mirror to concentrate sunlight onto a receiver tube containing a heat transfer fluid, which is then used to generate electricity.

Molten salt has a high specific heat capacity, which allows it to store a large amount of heat energy.

Linear Fresnel Reflectors use a series of long, flat mirrors to concentrate sunlight onto a linear receiver.

Stirling engines have a high efficiency in converting heat to electricity, making them a suitable choice for CSP systems.

Dish Photovoltaic systems use a dish-shaped concentrator to focus sunlight onto a photovoltaic cell, which converts light energy directly into electricity.
