I only want to know what means "design point" or what refers it? I have an idea but I don't understand exactly I know what DNI means but not "design point"?

Hello,

For the CSP models, the design point is a set of conditions that define the nameplate capacity of the system. When the system operates at the design point, it generates power at its nameplate capacity.

Best regards,
Paul.
