Solar thermal power plants
Especially in sunny regions, solar thermal power plants are an effective solution when it comes to producing electricity from solar energy. However, these high-tech power plants also require high-tech components that can withstand both high pressures and high temperatures – often in harsh, desert-like environments. You can rely on KSB's expertise in this specialist field.
