Technical Report · Tue Feb 01 04:00:00 EST 1983

DOI:https://doi.org/10.2172/5675353· OSTI ID:5675353

The results of activities within the parabolic dish technology and applications development program are presented. Stirling, organic Rankine and Brayton module technologies, associated hardware and test results to date, concentrator development and progress, economic analyses, and international dish development activities are covered. Two panel discussions, concerning industry issues affecting solar thermal dish development and dish technology from a utility/user perspective, are also included.
