To review the solar power technologies for sustainable power generation, a rigorous literature search has been performed to identify existing relevant studies. The identified studies have been analyzed on the basis of different types of solar power generation technologies and their diverse applications. A review of both types of solar power technologies i.e., PV and CSP has been conducted and different types of their concentration technologies have also been addressed. A comparison of both PV and CSP concentration technologies has been carried out on the basis of sustainability indicators
