Thanks and Congratulations for
the Rebirth of Dish Stirling CSP!
• The viability of dish Stirling CSP was demonstrated in
the 70’s and 80’s – then it died ………….
• Thanks to the persistence of a few folks at DOE, a
number of true believers, and .... energy costs and
climate change ... It has revived and helped all below
Sandia and NREL have weathered the storm and are
helping on many levels
• Congratulations to SES
Breaking their own long-standing efficiency record
Raising $100M+ to support GW+ installations
• Recent Infinia capital investment of $60M+
