This new Concentrated Solar Power (CSP) project is set to supply around 480 GWh of clean energy to the national grid each year. The system's molten salt storage enables 12 hours of full-load operation. But when we talk about 100MW solar PV plants with storage, the conversation must shift from ambition to economics. However, understanding their economic and environmental viability in urban residential contexts remains limited.
