As a thermal energy generating power station, CSP has more in common with such as coal, gas, or geothermal. A CSP plant can incorporate , which stores energy either in the form of or as (for example, using ), which enables these plants to continue supplying electricity whenever it is needed, day or night. This makes CSP a form of solar. Dispatchable is particularl.
