  • Federal policies that currently support CSP development
  • An overview of operational plants, as well as plants currently under construction and an estimate of the jobs to be created once they are operational
  • The benefits of CSP with thermal energy storage
  • The wildcards that will influence the outlook for CSP

This online event, free and open to all, will also include a live question and answer period, and will be recorded.
