The new flow control valves will improve heat distribution and minimise risks at critical joints, allowing higher CSP temperatures and greater energy conversion efficiency, research group Sandia National Laboratories told Reuters Events. New flow control valves being developed by US researchers could help CSP developers meet ambitious cost reduction targets. [...]
Concentrated solar power plants are aggressive environments rife with high temperatures, drastic temperature changes, excessive vibration, extreme characteristics and volatile ambient conditions. Flow management systems, especially piping system components, must be able to perform reliably within these aggressive environments, and the materials from which these valves are manufactured play a [...]
Concentrated Solar Power (CSP) is an innovative solar power technology and has been taken by countries like Spain, USA, Dubai, Morocco, South Africa, China and India. With the great expansion of new-built power projects and official support, CSP markets especially in China and Middle East & North Africa (MENA) are [...]
Luneng Haixi 50MW Molten Salt Tower Concentrated Solar Power Project is a crucial part of 700 MW Luneng Haixi Geermu Multi-energy Complement Integration Optimization Pilot Project, which consists of 200 MW PV, 400 MW Wind energy, 50 MW Concentrated Solar Power and 50 MW energy storage system. The 50MW [...]
Power China Gonghe 50MW Molten Salt Tower Concentrated Solar Power Project, as one of China first batch of pilot CSP projects, is under great progress and supposed to be commissioned in middle of 2019. The project Solar Field EPC SUPCON Solar says, up to date, all the 30,016 pieces [...]

Around 10 commercial Concentrated Solar Power projects are now under development and construction in China, and some biddings for systems and components & materials purchasing had been completed and winners announced. CSP Focus has been keeping tracking on the biddings, and generating report on the results. Taking an overview on [...]
Flowserve has completed engineering and is now heavily engaged in manufacturing key pumping systems for the Ouarzazate and Bokpoort Concentrated Solar Power (CSP) projects.
Flowserve announced a new order for 307 Limitorque MX10 actuators to support the Kaxu solar thermal project that is building the world's largest concentrating solar power plant in Pofadder, Northern Cape, South Africa.
The solar power company Solar Reserve has just announced a major construction milestone for its billion-dollar Crescent Dunes solar thermal project in Nevada.
Crescent Dunes is a concentrated solar power (CSP) plant, with a molten salt power tower design.
