Scientists Develop New Material To Generate Cheaper Electricity By Sunlight Concentrated solar power plants
Scientists have developed a substance that can generate electricity from the heat of the sun and clears the way to generate cheap solar energy during the night and in the days of a cloudy sky. Researchers say that this new discovery is an important step towards generating power from solar heat, which will compete directly with the cost of electricity generated from fossil fuels i.e. more economical.
'Preserving solar energy in the form of heating is already cheaper than preserving energy through the battery, so the next step is to reduce the cost of generating electricity from solar heat, and with the benefit that greenhouse gas emissions Be void.
Concentrated solar power plants concentrate the light on a small space through mirrors or lenses to convert solar energy into electricity, which produces heat which is transferred to a Molten salt.
Molten salt is the solid living in the standard temperature and pressure, which can be converted into a matter as the temperature increases and it can be used as a fluid to transfer heat.
The heat of the Molton Salt was then transferred to the working fluid supercritical carbon chain reaction chain which acts as a conduit for the power generating machine.
