Abengoa Solar’s mission is to contribute to meeting an increasingly higher percentage of our society’s energy needs through solar- based energy. To this end, Abengoa Solar works with the two chief solar technologies in existence today. First, it employs Concentrating Solar Power (CSP) technology in capturing the direct radiation from the sun to generate steam and drive a conventional turbine or to use this energy directly in industrial processes, usually in major electrical power grid-connected plants. Secondly, Abengoa Solar works with photovoltaic technologies that employ the sun’s energy for direct electrical power generation, thanks to the use of materials based on the so-called photovoltaic effect. Abengoa Solar works with these technologies in four basic lines of activity. The first encompasses promotion, construction and operation of CSP plants, Abengoa Solar currently designs, builds and operates efficient and reliable central receiver systems (tower and heliostats) and storage or non-storage-equipped parabolic trough collectors, as well as customized industrial installations for producing heat and electricity.

The study includes CSP with or without boost by combustion of natural gas 13 (NG), and with or without thermal energy storage (TES). The latest, actual specific costs per 14 installed capacity are very high, 6085 $/kW for Ivanpah Solar Electric Generating System (ISEGS) 15 with no TES, and 9227 $/kW for Crescent Dunes with TES. The actual production of electricity is 16 very low and much less than the expected. The actual capacity factors are 22% for ISEGS, despite 17 combustion of a significant amount of NG largely exceeding the planned values, and 13% for 18 Crescent Dunes. The design values were 33% and 52%. The study then reviews the proposed 19 technology updates to produce better ratio of solar field power to electric power, better capacity 20 factor, better matching of production and demand, lower plant’s cost, improved reliability and 21 increased life span of plant’s components.

  • LCOE Analysis of Tower Concentrating Solar Power Plants Using Different Molten-Salts for Thermal Energy Storage in China
    energies Article LCOE Analysis of Tower Concentrating Solar Power Plants Using Different Molten-Salts for Thermal Energy Storage in China Xiaoru Zhuang, Xinhai Xu * , Wenrui Liu and Wenfu Xu School of Mechanical Engineering and Automation, Harbin Institute of Technology, Shenzhen 518055, China; [email protected] (X.Z.); [email protected] (W.L.); [email protected] (W.X.) * Correspondence: [email protected] Received: 11 March 2019; Accepted: 8 April 2019; Published: 11 April 2019 Abstract: In recent years, the Chinese government has vigorously promoted the development of concentrating solar power (CSP) technology. For the commercialization of CSP technology, economically competitive costs of electricity generation is one of the major obstacles. However, studies of electricity generation cost analysis for CSP systems in China, particularly for the tower systems, are quite limited. This paper conducts an economic analysis by applying a levelized cost of electricity (LCOE) model for 100 MW tower CSP plants in five locations in China with four different molten-salts for thermal energy storage (TES). The results show that it is inappropriate to build a tower CSP plant nearby Shenzhen and Shanghai. The solar salt (NaNO3-KNO3, 60-40 wt.%) has lower LCOE than the other three new molten-salts. In order to calculate the time when the grid parity would be reached, four scenarios for CSP development roadmap proposed by International Energy Agency (IEA) were considered in this study. It was found that the LCOE of tower CSP would reach the grid parity in the years of 2038–2041 in the case of no future penalties for the CO2 emissions.

This is also called the levelized cost of electricity, which is a function of electricity production, capital costs, operational costs and financial parameters. The electricity production, capital and operational costs were defined as a function of the location through the Chilean territory. Solar resources and atmospheric conditions for each site were determined. A 130 MWe concentrated solar power plant was modeled to estimate annual electricity production for each site. The capital and operational costs were identified as a function of location. The electricity supplied by the power plant was tested, quantifying the potential of the solar resources, as well as technical and economic variables. The results reveal areas with great potential for the development of large-scale central receiver concentrated solar power plants, therefore accomplishing a low levelized cost of energy.

  • Atmospheric Water Generator
    Atmospheric water generator An atmospheric water generator (AWG), is a device desiccants such as lithium chloride or lithium bromide that extracts water from humid ambient air. Water vapor to pull water from the air via hygroscopic processes.[2] in the air is condensed by cooling the air below its dew A proposed similar technique combines the use of solid point, exposing the air to desiccants, or pressurizing the desiccants, such as silica gel and zeolite, with pressure air. Unlike a dehumidifier, an AWG is designed to render condensation. the water potable. AWGs are useful where pure drinking water is difficult or impossible to obtain, because there is almost always a small amount of water in the air that 2.1 Cooling condensation can be extracted.
