The Australian Solar Thermal Research Initiative (ASTRI), an ARENA-backed venture, has released a 3D-printed model of its 25MW concentrating solar thermal (CST) reference power plant. A CST plant could generate up to 90GWh of electricity p.a., with four hours of storage. ASTRO's new prototype is the first in Australia and will be used for testing purposes. * renewable energy future, it’s the storage component of CST technology that will revolutionise the way we deploy solar power."
