Summary: Solar trough power generation systems use parabolic mirrors to concentrate sunlight, converting it into thermal energy for electricity production. . The 510 MW CSP project at Ouarzazate in Morocco, NOOR I,II,II comprises both forms of CSP. Tower CSP (NOOR III) is seen here in the foreground while behind it, rows of parabolic troughs – the two Trough CSP plants (NOOR I and II) – can be seen further back. In solar thermal energy, all. . The largest operational trough system – California's Solar Energy Generating Stations – has produced over 12 terawatt-hours of electricity since 1984, equivalent to powering 1 million homes for a year. Thermal energy storage provides a workable solution to this challenge.
