"up to 720 °C and 275 bar... a fraction of the size of conventional turbomachinery... can increase the efficiency of a CSP plant by as much as 10 percentage points... The high efficiency of the sCO2 cycle also allows the turbomachinery to have a smaller footprint—it is 1/20th the size of a standard steam turbine"
