CLEAN ENERGY
FROM THE SUN
The CSP Dish Stirling technology is a breakthrough solution in renewable energy sources. CSP Dish Stirling represents an innovative approach to harnessing solar energy.
This technology combines a tracking structure with parabolic mirrors that reflect sunlight into a Stirling engine, which converts thermal energy into mechanical energy. A generator then transforms this mechanical energy into electrical energy.
A beneficial side effect is producing usable thermal energy and green hydrogen. With its high performance and flexibility, CSP Dish Stirling offers a strong alternative to traditional fossil fuels while minimizing environmental impact. Our CSP Dish Stirling power plants can thus contribute to a more sustainable future and bring innovation to the clean energy world.

Roadmap for the Research and Development of CSP Dish Stirling Solar Power Plant
Our journey in researching and developing the CSP Dish Stirling solar power plant began in 2000. At that time, the development of a Stirling engine for cogeneration units was initiated. Strojírny Bohdalice, a.s. and Concentrating Systems, s.r.o., took over this pioneering project and adopted the Stirling engine in their solar concentrator. All key components of our solar power plant result from our own research and development, enabling us to achieve the highest levels of quality and innovation in the field.
Optimized Stirling Engine: Our Stirling engine is specifically developed for solar applications, ensuring maximum efficiency and reliability.
High-Performance Solar Mirrors: Our solar mirrors are designed to maximize the concentration of sunlight, thus ensuring high energy yield.
Advanced Electrical Conversion Unit: Our proprietary electrical conversion unit ensures efficient conversion of mechanical energy into electrical energy with minimal losses.
Innovative Concentrator and Control System: Our proprietary concentrator and control system allows for precise sun tracking and optimization of the power plant's performance throughout the day.
Our focus on in-house research and development enables us to bring highly efficient, sustainable, and environmentally friendly technologies to market. We continue to innovate and constantly seek new ways to improve our technologies for future generations.
Direct solar irradiation > 1.800 KWh
The CSP Dish Stirling technology excels in areas with direct solar irradiation (DSI) greater than 1800 kWh per square meter per year. Under these conditions, the system achieves maximum efficiency and provides a reliable renewable energy source.
Even in areas with lower sunlight exposure, the CSP Dish Stirling technology can be effective if sufficient attention is given to utilizing thermal energy. With applications such as desalination, cooling, and other thermal energy uses, high efficiency can still be achieved even with reduced solar irradiation. This adaptability ensures that our technology can be applied in various geographical and climatic conditions, offering reliable solutions for various applications.
