Solar Facilities for the European Research Area-Second Phase (SFERA-II)

Start date: Jan 1, 2014, End date: Dec 31, 2017,

Solar Energy, as the primary source of renewable energy, will contribute a major part of this share, and its conversion by concentrating technologies for concentrating solar power (CSP) and heat generation has long been proven cost-effective for a wide range of applications. Several CSP projects have recently been put into operation. Some 2.400 MW are under construction and several GW are in advan ...
