Solar Thermal Tech Could Boost India's Net-Zero Goals

Solar Thermal Tech Could Boost India's Net-Zero Goals

India wants to use more renewable energy to reduce its carbon emissions.

Currently, most of its energy comes from coal, which is not good for the environment.

One way to generate renewable energy is by using solar panels, but they can be expensive and not very efficient in hot weather.

A new study suggests using solar thermal power, which converts sunlight into heat to make electricity.

This method is cheaper and more reliable than traditional solar panels.

The study found that a special fluid called R 1233zd (E) works best for this process.

The cost of this technology is also lower than other similar systems.

However, there is still room for improvement to make it even more efficient and cost-effective.
