CSP is used to produce electricity (sometimes called solar thermoelectricity, usually generated through ). Concentrated solar technology systems use or with systems to focus a large area of sunlight onto a small area. The concentrated light is then used as heat or as a heat source for a conventional (solar thermoelectricity). The solar concentrators use.
