This is also needed in PyPSA-Eur-Sec and requires an Atlite expansion. https://github.com/PyPSA/pypsa-eur/issues/225

@euronion is working on that

The CSP PR is on the way https://github.com/PyPSA/atlite/pull/194 @euronion do you think we can integrate in the next 10 days a preliminary CSP version into PyPSA-Africa? Or how long you...

The CSP power plant implementation (design include: solar receiver, thermal storage and power block) for PyPSA-Earth depends on the heat transfer fluid. See more in this [report](https://www.researchgate.net/profile/Maximilian-Parzen-2/publication/329125542_Comparison_of_Heat_Transfer_Fluids_HTF_for_Solar_Tower_Systems/links/5bf6c918a6fdcc3a8dea4042/Comparison-of-Heat-Transfer-Fluids-HTF-for-Solar-Tower-Systems.pdf).

Light to Heat (Link) = Receiver Heat to Store (Link) = Sometimes Heat exchanger, not always necessary Molten Storage Tank (Store) = Hot Molten Salt Store -> Heat (Link) =...

Probably good to write a small PyPSA example to test if everything works @GbotemiB I would probably do something like this maybe with naming that fits to the PyPSA-Earth/Eur convention:...

@Tomkourou We recently adjusted `attach_wind_and_solar()` to add renewables if available. See here: https://github.com/pypsa-meets-earth/pypsa-earth/pull/744/files This will add solar and wind power plants to the respective nodes if ppl data is available....

Sounds good! :+1: Modified my first message here to clarify that it is relevant to PyPSA-Earth

One extra point: 3. Maybe not the correct `.crs` system was set in the PyPSA-Earth config... So `elec.nc` might be wrong to begin with

Thanks @GbotemiB , regarding units. - let's only look into kilometer [km] for each voltage level
