coondoggie writes: "The US Department of Energy wants researchers and scientists to "think outside the box" and come up "highly disruptive Concentrating Solar Power technologies that will meet 6/kWh cost targets by the end of the decade." The DOE's "SunShot Concentrating Solar Power R&D" is a multimillion dollar endeavor that intends to look beyond what it calls incremental near-term to support research into transformative technologies that will break through performance barriers known today such as efficiency and temperature limitations."
