North America?s Concentrated Solar Power Industry to Convene in San Francisco this June

Most recent CSP Today findings have shown that over the next 3 years North America will prove to be a booming market for Concentrated Solar Thermal Power – set to be worth in excess of US$200bn.

Responding to this market potential North America has initiated brand new regulatory, legislative, permitting and financial support developed specifically to foster the development of this industry in the region.

Initiatives such as the Bureau of Land Managements Fast Track Scheme, which could see over 12 CSP projects approved for development by the end of December 2010.
