I worked on this CSP project back in 2009 when it was still on paper. It's really exciting to see forecasts/estimates/hypothesis that do work out i.e. store heat energy to serve peak hours when the sun isn't shinning. More importantly, and what I really look forward to, is that this carbon-free technology is to a large extent "validated" meaning that this kind of projects are now less risky, more viable and financeable. Hopefully this will push down the price of CSP + storage, which will make it more attractive to both utility incumbents and new entrants/energy startups.
- ndonnellan 13y agoI'm curious, what are you doing now? Still in CSP? The projects I worked on haven't yet come to light (ha), which is a bit disappointing.
- antr 13y agoI'm now doing the startup thing, but not in the energy space.
- ndonnellan 13y agoDitto, xP. Although, I imagine in 5-10 years solar will be a big player in energy, so I'm trying to stay current. Just gotta make it through the next 5-10 years.
