Passive safety systems in nuclear power plants
Passive nuclear safety is a design approach for safety features, implemented in a , that does not require any active intervention on the part of the operator or electrical/electronic feedback in order to bring the reactor to a safe shutdown state, in the event of a particular type of emergency (usually overheating resulting from a or loss of coolant flow). Such design features tend to rely on the engineering of components such that their predicted behavio.

Medium-sized solar power plants
In 2008, Spain launched the first commercial scale CSP market in Europe. Until 2012, solar-thermal electricity generation was initially eligible for feed-in tariff payments (art. 2 RD 661/2007) – leading to the creation of the largest CSP fleet in the world which at 2.3 GW of installed capacity contributes about 5TWh of power to the Spanish grid every year. The initial requirements for plants in th.
