In fact, the US still mirror solar energy There are several very important reasons why he is working on it.
This energy, investments in which are increasing rapidly all over the world,‘can be handled’ What makes it?
Mirrored solar power systems include concentrated solar power (CSP) technologies.

These systems use large mirrors or lenses Concentrates sunlight and with this energy it creates a heat source that reaches high temperatures. These high temperatures make it possible to generate electricity with a higher efficiency than traditional photovoltaic panels (PV).
Another reason is CSP systems can be integrated with thermal energy storage. This is an important detail that allows energy production to continue at night. In simple terms, mirrored solar energy systems can continue to produce energy even when the sun goes down.
It is very suitable for large projects.

CSP technologies, It is considered suitable for the establishment of large power plants in large areas. Such systems can produce very large amounts of energy if they can be installed in large, sunny areas, such as the desert regions of the United States.
And of course, the United States continues to turn to alternative energy sources to achieve its goals of energy security and reducing dependence on fossil fuels. CSP technologiescan play an important role in achieving these objectives.
So what is used in Turkey?

Our country focuses mainly on investments in solar and wind energy. In the field of solar energy, As the use of photovoltaic panels becomes more widespreadIn the field of wind energy, large-scale wind farms are being built. In line with Turkey’s renewable energy goals, the use of these resources is increasing and the country is striving to reduce its dependence on fossil fuels in energy production.
In addition, research continues in areas such as energy efficiency and storage technologies. The alternative to CSP technology is photovoltaic (PV) solar panels. PV panels are a more common and often more cost-effective method of converting sunlight directly into electricity.
Also in recent years As the cost of PV technology has dropped significantly In many countries, this technology has been preferred over CSP.
