The plenaries are followed by my presentation on overview of CSP technology and its applications for solar fuels, cooling/ heating, process heat even for hard to abate sectors, metal refining solar,methane reforming etc..

The conference is for announcing to the CSP players across the world that India is gearing up for faster implementation of CSP. It will expedite implementation of CSP in India at a scale which will bring not only greener power but also industrial heating and cooling at a rate cheaper than fossil based inputs. LCoE based competitive bidding tender offering a plug-n-play opportunity on BOO basis first time ever will bring down prices while strengthening Make in India.l and energy security.

With 350 days of Sunshine and huge areas with Good DNI best suited for CSP, India is geared up for 24×7 Firm and Dispatchable RE is the need of the hour.
