| Abstract: | Large scale solar thermal electricity generation is technically feasible and could soon become economically competitive, if more efforts for its introduction are made. In the two technologies developed by the author and his team, stretched metal membrane solar concentrators for heliostats and Dish/Stirling systems and the solar chimneys tension structures play a decisive role. Thus solar electricity generation has become a new and promising field of activity for structural engineers. |
