The thermal energy storage aspect of CSP is how the heat is accessed to run the power block - it not paired with- like some kind of bolt-on extra - is definitely demonstrated at scale. Just not in the US, which only tried out 5 CSP plants, only 2 with storage. China is currently building 30 CSP plants - all with storage. Here's how thermal energy storage in CSP works https://www.solarpaces.org/how-csp-thermal-energy-storage-works/ https://www.solarpaces.org/how-csp-thermal-energy-storage-wo...
