This grant, offered by the Solar Energy Technologies Office, is for advancing Concentrating Solar-Thermal Power (CSTP) technologies. The program, launched for Fiscal Year 2022, aims to support comprehensive research, development, and demonstration efforts. Its primary purpose is to accelerate innovation in CSTP, which typically involves using mirrors or lenses to concentrate a large area of sunlight onto a small area, converting it into heat for power generation or industrial processes. The initiative seeks proposals that can lead to more efficient, reliable, and cost-effective CSTP systems. Ultimately, this funding is intended to drive technological breakthroughs and facilitate the commercialization of sustainable solar-thermal energy solutions, contributing to a cleaner energy future.
