The importanceofenergy consumptionfor industrial steam generation justifies the need to promote new renewable and environmentally friendlyenergy sources, such as concentrated solar energy, for its integration in this sector.In this work,thedifferent alternatives currentlyavailableand their advantages and disadvantagesare discussed, as well as themain parameters that influence the design of solar installations for industrial steam production.Besides, a guidance procedure is proposed and applied to a real solar plant design.
