Reducing water usage in concentrated solar power plants with radiative cooling and cold storage

To deal with the current climate and energy crisis, the world is moving towards a sustainable energy economy. Concentrated solar power (CSP) plants are becoming a major player in this field. CSP plants use lenses and mirrors spread across a vast region to concentrate sunlight onto the receiver of solar panels and then convert the solar power into electrical power through steam engines or turbines. The steam engines need to be cooled off regularly to maintain the high-power conversion efficiency.
