Sandia National Laboratories has been tasked to operate and maintain the National Solar Thermal Test Facility (NSTTF) located in Kirtland Airforce Base near Albuquerque, NM. The NSTTF provides established test platforms and experienced researchers and technologists in the field of Concentrating Solar Technologies (CST) and Concentrating Solar Power (CSP). This three-year project seeks to maintain the NSTTF for development, testing, and application of new CSP technologies that are instrumental in advancing the state-of-the-art in support of SunShot and Generation 3 CSP technology goals. In turn, these technologies will form the foundation of the global CSP industry and continue to advance the technology to new levels of efficiency, higher temperatures, lower costs, lower risk, and higher reliability. The NSTTF provides established test platforms and highly experienced researchers and technologists in the CSP field.
