The technology then sees the use of a receiver, which is situated at the solar collector's focal point, that is in charge of absorbing and turning the concentrated sunlight into heat. The receiver's contents include heat-transfer fluids such as molten salt or high-temperature oil.CST has a few drawbacks: it requires a favorable climate with constant sunshine in order to function at its best, and it is expensive.
The development sees the use of ceramic particles that can tolerate temperatures of over 1000°C to optimize CST. These particles simplify the system and cut energy costs by both absorbing and storing solar heat.
