CSP (concentrated solar power) is the technology we need in Pakistan. Solar thermal can be largely manufactured in the country without having to import expensive fancy photo-voltic solar panels. This will save a lot of foreign exchange, create jobs and boost manufacturing sector. Anyone in the electricity producing 'Power Corridors' listening? Can we make the right choices?
We can use the space on top of our renowned canal system to both save water evaporation and also use the real estate to install solar trough based CSP systems. That would be very nice. And we have plenty of desert if we do this in south part of the country.
Here is the latest CSP plant that was inaugurated in UAE yesterday.
