Concentrating solar power

Description

This annual evaluation is a synthesis of works published in 2006. Comparisons are presented between the wind power performances and European Commission White Paper and Biomass action plan objectives. After having been blocked for a long time in its development, the concentrating solar power sector is undergoing a full revival today due to the falling costs, more effective technologies and policies sensitive to environmental questions. The USA concentrates today practically all of the installed concentrating solar power capacity in the world. But the sector is now also being carried by Spain. (A.L.B.)
