Global Concentrated Solar Power (Parabolic Trough, Tower, Fresnel and Dish Sterling) Market 2012 - 2020
M2 - Fri Aug 22, 3:21AM CDT
Research and Markets (http://www.researchandmarkets.com/research/7rk667/concentrated) has announced the addition of the "Concentrated Solar Power Market for product segment - Global Industry Analysis, Size, Share, Growth, Trends and Forecast, 2012 - 2020" report to their offering. This research study analyzes the market size of Concentrated Solar Power, in terms of volume (MW installed) and revenue (USD million). The major driver for concentrated solar power market is rising awareness about the global warming. Carbon emissions from the fossil fuel generating stations are one of the major causes of green house gases in atmosphere. Governments from different countries have started taking appropriate measure for reducing the green house gases emission in the atmosphere. Alteration in the power generation process is one of the major steps taken towards to reduce the carbon footprints in the atmosphere. The CSP market can be segmented broadly on the basis of different types of technology used for power generation. CSP technology can be broadly segmented into Parabolic Trough, Tower, Fresnel and Dish Sterling. Among all these technologies Parabolic Trough is considered to be the most matured technology and is used widely at commercial level for power generation. After Parabolic Trough, Tower is widely used followed by Fresnel. Parabolic Trough was the most dominating technology used for power generation in 2013 and is expected to grow at a healthy CAGR during the forecasted period 2014 - 2020. Dish Sterling technology is still used for demonstration and pilot projects. CSP technology is considered to be high capital intensive in nature and without governmental and financial institutions support it cannot be deployed at commercial scale. Government incentive and rebate schemes along with low feed in tariffs are major drivers for the demand of CSP technology. Though because of economic slowdown in Europe, the market has led a slow degradation in the installation process but the market is expected to grow during the forecasted period 2014-2020. Tower technology is growing with the fastest rate because of the integration of technology with the conventional thermal power plants. In terms of CSP installed capacity, Europe is considered as the leading producer of power from CSP technology in the world and the production is expected to grow in the forecasted period of 2012-2019. The second largest production comes from the North America followed by Asia Pacific. The market for the CSP in Asia Pacific is expected to rise with in the forecasted period.

Mongolia Growth Group Ltd. May 2014 Monthly Letter to Shareholders Toronto, Ontario (FSCwire) - Mongolia Growth Group Ltd. (YAK TSXV and MNGGF USA), a real estate investment and development company pursuing the dynamic growth of the Mongolian economy via ownership of institutional-quality commercial property assets in the capital city of Ulaanbaatar, Mongolia is pleased to announce the release of its May 2014 Shareholder Letter. May 2014 Shareholder Letter To the Shareholders of Mongolia Growth Group Ltd., In May 2014, MGGs core commercial property portfolio* experienced a same-store rental increase of 28.8% relative to May 2013 on properties owned 12 months or longer, as measured in local currency (Mongolian Togrog). Total billed revenue for May 2014 was 257.0 million Mongolian Togrog, as compared to 220.1 million Mongolian Togrog in May of 2013 or a 16.8% increase.** The occupancy rate for the core portfolio in May of 2014 was 95.8% including an occupancy rate of 98.4% for core retail properties and an occupancy rate of 89.7% for core office properties. Investment Portfolio and Q1 Commercial Property Report Investment Portfolio During the month of May, we continued to implement our strategy of shifting MGGs asset mix away from smaller properties that cost more to maintain and manage, towards larger institutional-quality assets that are easier to scale, as we continue to build MGG into Mongolias leading commercial real estate concern. During May, we disposed of one property, along with finalizing the transfer of the three properties noted in the press release on May 29, 2014. In the first five months of 2014, we have disposed of a total of nine properties. Q1 Commercial Property Report MGG has now published Mongolias first bilingual commercial property report covering the retail sector in central Ulaanbaatar. MGG intends to continue publishing quarterly commercial property reports with the second quarter report focused on the office market. When we first arrived in Ulaanbaatar in the summer of 2010, it was difficult to get practical information about the commercial property market. As an industry leader, we feel a responsibility to bring transparency to the commercial property market, both for investors and potential tenants interested in learning more about the current state of the market. We are very excited to be releasing the first of many future institutional quality commercial property reports. To access Mongolias first commercial property report, please visit the Companys leasing website www.mggproperties.com (http://www.mggproperties.com).
