Economic evaluation of towers for central receiver systems [PDF]
AIP Conference Proceedings, 2018 So far, the tower is probably the most under-investigated component of solar thermal power tower plants. While the capacity of these plants is constantly increasing, also the tower dimensions are rising, calling for higher towers that can bear receivers of bigger size and weight.
