What Is Direct Molten Salt (Dms)?

Views: 593
Novatec Solar, has commissioned a solar thermal energy demonstration plant in Spain
. . . that is based on a new type of molten salt storage technology called,
. . . Direct Molten Salt (DMS), that can operate at temperatures well above 500°C,
. . . resulting in a significant increase in power yield.

This means that costs are lowered significantly and
. . . the solar plants can act as baseload generators if required.

The use of DMS technology is being used at the
. . . 110 MW Crescent Dunes power tower unit nearing completion in Nevada,
. . . which will be the largest solar thermal plant with storage in the world.
