Abstract
This paper discusses about solar power. In solar power, 4,000MW of utility scale projects are planned, contracted or under construction using concentrated solar thermal (CST) technology. CST is currently seen as a cheaper generation technology than PV. However, PV is thought likely to become more cost effective as it takes greater advantage of semiconductor-based cost-down economics.
