Concentrated Solar Power Generation Systems: The SAIC Dish

The dish moves constantly throughout the day to track the sun, resulting in a very high intensity solar beam on the target. This beam can be used to power a photovoltaic cell array or a thermal system.

Concentrated solar power

OverviewCurrent technologyComparison between CSP and other electricity sourcesHistoryCSP with thermal energy storageDeployment around the worldCostEfficiency

CSP is used to produce electricity (sometimes called solar thermoelectricity, usually generated through steam). Concentrated solar technology systems use mirrors or lenses with tracking systems to focus a large area of sunlight onto a small area. The concentrated light is then used as heat or as a heat source for a conventional power plant (solar thermoelectricity). The solar concentrators used in CSP systems can ofte
