Economic impacts of solar thermal electricity technology deployment on Andalusian productive activities: a CGE approach

Solar thermal electricity is a type of renewable energy technology of special interest for Andalusia (southern Spain) because of the large number of annual sunshine hours. This paper estimates the impact on productive activities of increasing the production capacity of the installed solar thermal pl...
