Solar thermal power plants work by concentrating sunlight onto a receiver using mirrors or lenses. The receiver absorbs the sunlight and converts it into heat, which is used to generate steam. This isn't a thing of the future, either. Between 1984 and 1991, the United States built nine such plants in California's Mojave Desert, and today they continue to. . What is concentrating solar-thermal power (CSP) technology and how does it work? CSP technologies use mirrors to reflect and concentrate sunlight onto a receiver. Later, you can use it to maintain a stable temperature of workspaces or generate electricity.
