Solar thermal power generation silicone oil
Silicone oil-based heat transfer media, for example HELISOL® XLP, are a promising heat transfer alternative for achieving higher efficiencies and lower power generation costs with solar thermal power plants. . The recently launched Si-CO project seeks to develop a new parabolic trough collector for silicone oil-based heat transfer media. They are particularly effective for use in instruments and gauges that will operate at extreme temperatures and high pressures.

Solar thermal power generation system is mainly composed of
Where temperatures below about 95 °C (200 °F) are sufficient, as for space heating, flat-plate collectors of the nonconcentrating type are generally used. Because of the relatively high heat losses through the glazing, flat plate collectors will not reach temperatures much above 200 °C (400 °F) even when the heat transfer fluid is stagnant. Such temperatures are too low for to electricity.
