Deployment Around The World
The commercial deployment of CSP plants started by 1984 in the US with the SEGS plants until 1990 when the last SEGS plant was completed. From 1991 to 2006 no CSP plants were built anywhere in the world.

Famous quotes containing the words the world and/or world:
“It is not quite the same when we are seventy-two as when we are twenty-seven; still I am glad of what is left, and wish we might both hold out till the victory we have sought is won, but all the same the victory is coming. In the aftertime the world will be the better for it.”
—Lucy Stone (18181893)
“A great world leader is gone. Liberty loving people around the globe are sad tonight. We are strengthened in the thought of President Roosevelts work for little people everywhere.”
—Lyndon Baines Johnson (19081973)
