Christos Markides, professor of clean energy technologies at Imperial College London explains to CNN: \"Thermal energy storage is about 10 times cheaper than electrical energy storage. Typically, CSP has an efficiency slightly higher than photovoltaic cells (PVs). That gives that particular technology an advantage.\"<\/p>\n<h2>Electricity in the desert at night, too<\/h2>\n<p>Specifically, CSP can continue to make electricity even without sun and well into the night. Dubai's tower can store 15 hours of heat and will be able to provide power 24 hours a day, according to Dubai authorities. When completed, the CSP tower will reach a maximum of 260 meters and will be surrounded by 70,000 heliostats.<\/p>\n<p>The original article can be found in English on CNN's website.
