Here Comes the Sun: Concentrated Solar Power!

Hear Solar Energy Expert Bruce Anderson on Sunday, November 16 at 12:30pm

Solar energy expert Bruce Anderson presents Here Comes the Sun: Concentrated Solar Power, at a Science, Reason & Religion forum at the Unitarian Universalist Congregation of Fairfax, 2709 Hunter Mill Rd in Oakton on Sunday, November 16 at 12:30pm.

Looming climate disruption and the urgent need to redress electricity injustices for 1.6 billion powerless people pose a daunting challenge. How can we produce power reliably, economically, and without polluting? Even with battery storage, wind and photovoltaics (solar cells) cannot operate reliably 24/7 every day of the year.

Concentrated solar power (CSP) is a power-producing technology that is emerging as a potential solution. The public is invited to hear Bruce Anderson describe how CSP can address climate change and the delivery of power to people without, economically and reliably all day, every day. This event will be held in the Chapel in the Program Building.
