The oral debate session specially organized for the 2024 China Solar Thermal Power Generation Conference undoubtedly adds a strong academic atmosphere and vitality to the conference. Through in-depth exchanges on two hot topics, namely "photovoltaic plus solar thermal is the most competitive renewable energy source" and "trough technology is more suitable for the market than tower technology", the debate competition not only stimulated participants' thinking, but also promoted in-depth discussions on related issues in the field of solar thermal power generation.
Firstly, this form of debate competition helps promote academic exchange and collision. During the debate, both sides engaged in intense confrontation around hot issues, each presenting their own views and presenting evidence in an attempt to persuade the other and the judges. This direct communication method helps to break down academic barriers, promote the collision and integration of different perspectives and ideas, and thus drive innovation and development in solar thermal power generation technology.
Secondly, the debate competition has promoted in-depth thinking and exploration of related issues. Hot topics often involve core technologies and market trends in the field of solar thermal power generation. Through debate competitions, participants can gain a deeper understanding of the essence and background of these issues, thus having a clearer understanding and judgment on the future development of solar thermal power generation technology. At the same time, the debate competition also stimulated the participants' innovative thinking, encouraging them to think and solve problems from new perspectives and angles.
The oral debate session specially organized for the 2024 China Solar Thermal Power Generation Conference is a productive form of academic exchange. It not only promotes academic exchange and collision, promotes in-depth thinking and exploration of related issues, but also enlivens the conference atmosphere, enhances the participants' sense of participation and belonging. I believe that in the future field of solar thermal power generation, this form of debate competition will be more widely applied and promoted.
