[pdf] Ouagadougou's pilot project at the Zagtouli Solar Plant uses similar tech but with a local twist - they're testing shea butter as a thermal storage medium! Early results show 30% cost savings compared to synthetic oils.
[pdf] The rise in distributed renewable energy generation creates a growing need to find viable solutions for energy storage to match energy demand and supply at any time. This paper evaluates the possibility of using.
[pdf] Tokyo-based heavy industry manufacturer IHI Corporation has created a thermal utilization system that can convert surplus direct current power at solar plants into carbon-free steam. A test project that commenced in April has used all generated electricity and is operating stably, the company says.
[pdf] STSs are TES systems where the source of heat is provided by the solar field, capturing the excess of energy not directly converted into power or other useful utility.
