Recent Releases of CSP.guru
CSP.guru - CSP.guru 2023-07-01
This version of CSP.guru has been compiled by Richard Thonig and Alina Gilmanova in collaboration with the SolarPACES secretariat and reflects the CSP market in the middle of 2023. The Chinese market continues to develops favorably with many new projects tendering being developed and 1 GW now under construction. To reflect the economics' of these Chinese hybrid projects new columns on hybrid economics have been included. Outside China some plants in Italy and a the third generation CSP pilots G3P3 have been added.

CSP.guru - CSP.guru 2022-07-01
This version of CSP.guru has been compiled by Richard Thonig in collaboration with the SolarPACES secretariat and reflects the CSP market in the middle of 2022. The Chinese market develops favorably with many new projects announced to be completed by 2024. At the end of 2021, the beam-down tower project was completed with 5 out of 15 initially planned towers completed.
Staying conservative, we only include those projects that are reported as under construction but keep a close eye for coming updates. In South Africa Redstone is finally under construction. Moreover, several pilot stations moved forward. We deleted three plants because we couldn't verify that they are under construction or will still be completed after the Chinese Feed-in-Tariff ran out at the end of 2021, thos are: OpenCSP_ID 132,133,134
"Shenzhen Jinfan Akesai - 50MW Molten Salt Trough", "Shouhang Yumen 100 MW Tower", "Supcon Delingha 135 MW Tower".

CSP.guru - CSP.guru 2020-07-01
This is the second version of CSP.guru produced during the openCSP project. The Noor Energy 1 project and Dubai and Cerro Dominador in Chile were updated to reflect recent developments. Both projects were checked for the role of colocated PV on their economics, and expected generation was deleted to reflect the fact that CSP-only generation is unknown. The GPS locations were converted to decimal for better handling. Additional data on the Chinese CSP stations was included based on information from Chuncheng Zang and Alina Gilmanova.
