What is thermal solar salt energy storage?

Thermal solar salt energy storage has in other instances meant using concentrated solar power (CSP) to heat and melt salt and store that thermal energy for charging, and then discharging the system by using the heat from the molten salt to power a turbine generator, after which the salt is circulated back into the system for ‘charging’ again.
