6 FAQs about [Parabolic solar power plant]
What is parabolic trough solar?
Parabolic trough solar technology is the most proven and lowest cost large-scale solar power technology available today, primarily because of the nine large commercial-scale solar power plants that are operating in the California Mojave Desert.
What is a parabolic trough power plant?
A parabolic trough power plant uses a curved, mirrored trough that reflects direct solar radiation onto a glass tube containing a fluid. This fluid, also called a receiver or collector, runs the length of the trough and is positioned at the focal point of the reflectors.
Does a parabolic trough solar power plant need a backup fuel?

Kaufhold, in Comprehensive Renewable Energy, 2012 In a parabolic trough solar power plant, a backup fuel has to be added to keep the HTF in the solar field above freezing point and to maintain its temperature in order to compensate for the lack of solar radiation, which could affect the established delivery of energy .
What is parabolic trough technology?
Parabolic trough technology is currently the most nine large commercial-scale solar power plants, the since 1984. These plants, which continue to operate t a total of 354 MW of installed electric generating e thermal energy used to produce steam for a Rankine Figure Solar/Rankine 1.
Are parabolic trough solar collectors expensive?
Although parabolic troughs are one of the cheapest CSP technologies, the cost of electricity from parabolic trough solar collectors is still twice as expensive as electricity from conventional sources. The cost of construction and installation of a parabolic trough collector can be high.
What is the shape of the reflectors in a parabolic trough power plant?
Parabolic trough power plants use a curved, mirrored trough which reflects the direct solar radiation onto a glass tube containing a fluid (also called a receiver, absorber or collector) running the length of the trough, positioned at the focal point of the reflectors. The trough is parabolic along one axis and linear in the orthogonal axis.
