Solar thermal power generation uses the sun as a source of heat. As discussed above, the energy reaching the earth’s surface is mostly either infrared or visible radiation. A solar thermal plant can utilise the infrared and a small part of the visible spectrum. This energy is absorbed and used to raise the temperature of a heat transfer fluid.
There are two other types of solar thermal power plant. One is a solar pond, a large area of water exposed to sunlight that is designed to maintain a small temperature gradient between its upper and lower layers that can be used to drive a heat engine. This is a relatively low-technology solar thermal plant and it has been rarely used.
The efficiency of a solar thermal power plant is the product of the collector efficiency, field efficiency and steam-cycle efficiency. The collector efficiency depends on the angle of incidence of the sunlight and the temperature in the absorber tube, and can reach values up to 75%. Field losses are usually below 10%.
