Photon Energy has announced it has secured 12 square kilometers at an unspecified location in South Australia for a 300 MW, 3.6 GWh complex using RayGen’s “Concentrated Solar Photovoltaic” technology. RayGen has been interviewed by us before, and got a mention in our Concentrated Solar Power report as perhaps the single most unusual CSP design. Photon Energy also says it is developing multiple additional sites across Australia for RayGen’s technology, while this 3.6 GWh complex should begin construction in 2023, as permitting and grid-connection is underway. Read the linked article for a full description of the technology, but suffice to say RayGen’s approach puts solar cells at the CSP receiver, cooling them with a constant flow of sub-boiling water which…
