Concentrated Solar Power An Analysis on Solar Thermal Power and its Application Hassan Almutawa and Chavis Sabin Abstract Concentrated Solar Power (CSP) is a renewable energy source that converts the radiation from the Sun into thermal energy. CSP plants collect solar energy throughout the day and can continue to provide electricity for up to six hours after dark using thermal storage. CSP plants can only be built in arid flat areas with a high annual solar radiation rating. Many countries
