A new concentrating solar power system developed by Pacific Northwest National Laboratory (PNNL) can reduce the fuel consumption of a modified natural-gas combined-cycle (NGCC) power plant by about 20%. The power plant then combusts the more energy dense syngas to produce electricity. The full CSP system. Photo: PNNL. Click to enlarge.
