Thermal Energy: Reliable source Reliable source Could potentially supply 10% U.S. energy demand Could potentially supply 10% U.S. energy demand

Concentrating Solar Power Technologies (CSP) By using 1% of the earth’s deserts to build CSPs more electricity could be produced than is currently being produced by fossil fuels by the entire planet By using 1% of the earth’s deserts to build CSPs more electricity could be produced than is currently being produced by fossil fuels by the entire planet

How they work: Generate electricity indirectly Generate electricity indirectly 1. Heat from sun rays is collected and heats fluid. 2. Steam produced from heated fluid powers a generator. 3. Produces electricity.
