Why is concentrating solar power important?

In this context, concentrating solar power (CSP) stands poised to play a critical role due to its controllable and dispatchable capabilities. However, the dearth of guidelines for modeling CSP in power system optimal planning and operation hinders accurate characterization of CSP's operational properties.

How does concentrated solar power work?

Electricity is generated when the concentrated light is converted to heat (solar thermal energy), which drives a heat engine (usually a steam turbine) connected to an electrical power generator or powers a thermochemical reaction. As of 2021, global installed capacity of concentrated solar power stood at 6.8 GW.
