We had designed and constructed the MSPT (Molten Salt Parabolic Trough) demo plant in Italy in 2013. The performance data of the MSPT process such as solar energy collecting efficiency according to the change in the weather, heat loss of molten salt circulating system and so forth were obtained. And also several tests about molten salt handling procedures, for example, molten salt filling to and withdraw from the system were carried out to establish the operating and maintenance methods of this process. In 2014, this plant was modified by adding the steam generation system to get data for steam generation and enhance the cooling system for long time operation. Through the two year's operations of this plant, it was confirmed that MSPT technology is manageable and reliable. The detail information of demo plant tests is shown in our previous literatures 2), 3) and 4). In this report, some representative test results are introduced.
