  2. Concentrated solar power - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Concentrated_solar_power

    As a thermal energy generating power station, CSP has more in common with thermal power stations such as coal, gas, or geothermal. A CSP plant can incorporate thermal energy storage, which stores energy either in the form of sensible heat or as latent heat (for example, using molten salt), which enables these plants to continue supplying electricity whenever it is needed, day or night.

  3. Cost of electricity by source - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cost_of_electricity_by_source

    The cost of a solar PV module make up the largest part of the total investment costs. As per the recent analysis of Solar Power Generation Costs in Japan 2021, module unit prices fell sharply. In 2018, the average price was close to 60,000 yen/kW, but by 2021 it is estimated at 30,000 yen/kW, so cost is reduced by almost half.

  4. Concentrator photovoltaics - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Concentrator_photovoltaics

    Concentrator photovoltaics and thermal (CPVT), also sometimes called combined heat and power solar (CHAPS) or hybrid thermal CPV, is a cogeneration or micro cogeneration technology used in the field of concentrator photovoltaics that produces usable heat and electricity within the same system.

  5. Solar power in Pennsylvania - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Solar_power_in_Pennsylvania

    Pennsylvania has a renewable portfolio standard titled Alternative Energy Portfolio Standard (AEPS), which mandates use of solar photovoltaics (PV) for electricity. All electrical utilities in Pennsylvania must supply a percentage of their electricity from alternative sources, which fall into two tiers: Tier I, which includes biomass, wind, and geothermal; and Tier II, which includes waste ...

  6. Solar power tower - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Solar_power_tower

    It uses an array of flat, movable mirrors (called heliostats) to focus the sun's rays upon a collector tower (the target). Concentrating Solar Power (CSP) systems are seen as one viable solution for renewable, pollution-free energy. [1] Early designs used these focused rays to heat water and used the resulting steam to power a turbine.

  7. Solar thermal energy - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Solar_thermal_energy

    Heat in a solar thermal system is guided by five basic principles: heat gain; heat transfer; heat storage; heat transport; and heat insulation. [59] Here, heat is the measure of the amount of thermal energy an object contains and is determined by the temperature, mass and specific heat of the object.
