Concentrated solar power
The reflector follows the sun during the daylight hours by tracking along a single axis. A working fluid (e.g. molten salt [42]) is heated to 150–350 °C (302–662 °F) as it flows through the receiver and is then used as a heat source for a power generation system. [43] Trough systems are the most developed CSP technology.
