Concentrating Solar Power in Developing Countries : Regulatory and Financial Incentives for Scaling Up /

At present, different concentrating solar thermal technologies (CST) have reached varying degrees of commercial availability. This emerging nature of CST means that there are market and technical impediments to accelerating its acceptance, including cost competitiveness, an understanding of technolo...
