Andasol I & II are a scenic bus ride away in a different province in Granada, but still in the Andalusian region. The ride will pass quickly as our route will take us through some of the most beautiful landscapes Spain has to offer and that many tourists pay good money to see!
The Andasol solar power station is Europe’s first commercial parabolic trough solar thermal power plant. Andasol 1 went online in November 2008 and Andasol 2 and 3 are currently under construction.
We will visit the plants so that you can see for yourself the pioneering PT solar field and also the record breaking molten salt tanks, the first ever tanks that provide 8 hours thermal storage for a full size plant.
trip 1 (tue, nov 10th) - plataforma solar de almería
The Plataforma Solar of Almería (PSA), located in the province of Almería is dependent upon the CIEMAT and it is one of most important solar research centres in the world for CSP, particularly in the realm of concentrated solar thermal, with over 90 people dedicated to R&D in this subject.
On this large dessertic site, the full force of the Andalusian sun has been exploited since 1980 for the testing and optimisation of a variety of solar technologies under nearly practicable conditions.
Currently the PSA holds a variety of installations including two solar towers, a direct steam generation cycle, three parabolic trough fields, a solar furnace, 6 EuroDish facilities, solar chemical test for water detoxification and a desalination facility as well as a recent addition of solar hydrogen generation test facility.
On this trip you will have the opportunity to visit the PSA and all its test facilities guided by the PSA staff themselves, and to learn about the past and current R&D task forces that its staff are carrying out.

Hi,
You don’t need me to tell you that the CSP industry has seen unprecedented growth in the past couple of years. Particularly in Spain, where we will start next year with 281 MW installed and up to 400MW by mid 2010... but make no mistake, despite the economic recession this is just the beginning in the CSP race!
And with more than 14 plants currently in construction, the Spanish industry is thriving and steadily gaining traction nationally and internationally.
With new CSP markets emerging in Europe, North Africa and the Middle East facilitated by the Union of the Mediterranean and other governmental support; the opportunity for rapid expansion is immense, and you and your business need to be ready to take full advantage of it.
This is only the beginning, as even more regions are starting to open up to CSP worldwide, from US and India to Australia and South Africa – eventually CSP will be a part of every energy economy around the globe - the future of CSP looks very bright.
Over 6GW are predicted by 2012 worldwide. To capitalize on this growth it is essential to make the right moves, find the right partners, impress the right contacts and choose the right projects. It’s also vital that you are up to speed on all the latest CSP issues and that you learn what you can from the success of the companies that are making CSP work and now seeing rapid growth.
You can do all this and more at the CSP Today 3rd Concentrated Solar Thermal Power Summit 09.
We are now at a critical stage where the industry is facing great opportunity but rapid expansion is being held back by the international banking crisis, with securing project finance an increasingly difficult chore. This coupled with the uncertainty about the new Real Decreto has stalled industry growth. Technological challenges, reducing costs sustainably throughout time, storing heat effectively and more – you need to face up all these challenges and the 3rd Concentrated Solar Thermal Power Summit 09 gives you what you need to address these challenges.
Take a look at our agenda and you’ll see exactly what I mean. You’ll get information on all the challenges listed above plus cost reduction information, exclusive case studies from CSP industry leaders including Acciona, ACS SCE, Iberdrola, Abengoa, Iberinco, Solar Millenium, Solel, Torresol and many more!
Over 3500 people attended our events in just the last 18 months, so you can be sure that you will connect with the people that will take your business to the next level. Nowhere else will you meet so many dedicated CSP executives under one roof. It’s the European hub of CSP knowledge!
And above and beyond the agenda, we´ve worked really hard to offer much more value for your money, with site visits to Plataforma Solar of Almería and Andasol as part as the CSP experience in Sevilla, an Award Ceremony which gives you the opportunity to nominate and vote for industry leaders, an e-Networker service which offers the opportunity to connect with other event attendees pre and post conferences to make sure that your summit´s experience is even more useful, and much, much more!
I look forward to meeting you in Sevilla next November!

Welcome message from the Chairmen of the summit
Last year the Concentrated Solar Thermal Power Summit in Seville managed to make a little piece of history when we witnessed the coming of age of the CSP industry in Spain and Europe. With more than 400 participants, the summit reflected the diversity of the industry and all of the main actors from Spain, Europe and the rest of the world. One year later and real progress has been made. The PS 20 successfully conducted the testing phase and is about to begin commercial operation. Andasol I has been successfully completed and it will be fully operational later this year. At the same time there are 15 other plants under construction, four of which will connect to the grid in the next few months, which means that we will start 2010 with 281 MW of CSP power feeding into the electricity grid. And this is just the beginning! At this difficult time of economic crisis and unemployment, Europe cannot afford to lose leadership or competitiveness. On the contrary, it has to be seen as an opportunity to show that the CSP industry in Europe, North Africa and the Middle East is a reality and that is growing at an exponential rate. And with the support of the Union of the Mediterranean and the various governmental support schemes available, the time is right.
The 3rd CSP Today Concentrated Solar Thermal Power Summit in Seville will celebrate Europe´s position as world leader and promote the dialogue necessary to ensure that this continues well into the future. This meeting is essential for all businesses who want to be a part of the CSP revolution. In November, hundreds of people will attend the summit to learn, to overcome challenges together and to do business. We hope that you will also be there so that together we can shape the future of the CSP industry.
See you in Sevilla in November!
