CSP Perspective
Parabolic Trough will remain most important technology
near term
Solar Tower will have increasing market share in midterm
higher cost reduction potential
Why?
higher concentration allows higher operating temperatures
higher cycle and overall efficiency
higher storage temperature difference
9 / IRENA 6.10.2011
Increased Revenues
Increase annual energy output: improved operation strategy and less O&M

multi-tower systems
single / multiple power plants
11 / IRENA 6.10.2011
Conclusions
unique selling proposition of CSP: storage and/or hybridization
additional value compared to PV and wind
