Understanding Concentrated Solar Power
Source: La Dehesa plant
Concentrated Solar Power (CSP), also called Solar ThermalPower Generation, plants produce electric power by usingmirror to concentrate a large area of sunlight onto a smallarea, the boiler.
Electricity is generated whenthe concentrated light isconverted to heat, whichdrives a heat engine (usuallya steam turbine) connectedto an electrical powergenerator.

Understanding Concentrated Solar Power
Calasparra plant. Fresnel technology
Concentrated solar power (CSP) plants can integratethermal energy storage systems to generate electricityduring cloudy periods or even several hours after the sunset.CSP systems can be also combined with combined cyclepower plants resulting in hybrid power plants which providehigh-value, dispatchable power.
Concentrated Solar Powersystems can be sized for villagepower (10 kilowatts) or grid-connected applications (more than100 megawatts).

Understanding Concentrated Solar Power

• At the beginning of the 70s, with the rapid increase in oilprices, is when the great impulse to solar concentrationtechnologies takes place.
• High intensity of research activity in Solar ConcentrationSystems was developed between the mid 70's and the end ofthe 80's.
• During the 1980s and 1990s, the first commercial initiativeswere built in the USA. (SEGS plants, in the Mojave desert ofCalifornia).
• The thermoelectric solar sector is currently in the commercialtakeoff phase throughout the world, and especially in Spain.

Research and development centers
• The Solar Platform of Almería (PSA), Spain belongs to the Center forEnergy, Environmental and Technological Research (CIEMAT). It is thelargest public research and testing center dedicated to solarconcentration technologies.
• The Solar Platform Sanlúcar la Mayor (SOLUCAR): It belongs to theAbengoa group and it is the largest private centre of solar energy, withtechnologies of all the solar areas, mainly solar thermoelectric.
• Sandia National Laboratories, in EE.UU.: carries out the NSTTF(National Solar Thermal Test Facility), near Alburquerque in New Mexicowith a tower plant of 5 MW for component tests.
• Other centers with tower plants of 1-2 MW such as: WeizmannInstitute, in Israel, in Rehovot, Colonia (Germany) and soon in theFrench Pyrenees (former THEMIS plant).

An overview of CSP technologies
23
• On production cost alone, PV is, today, significantly cheaperthan CSP. It is also more modular and easier to design,construct, maintain and operate.
• When dispatchability is required, CSP+TES is cheaper toinstall and to run than PV with batteries, which gives CSP acompetitive advantage. Nevertheless this is changing fast.
• Hybridizing CSP with fuels can ease the path, reducingemissions while providing track record to CSP, and time toamortize plants in operation.

4. Concluding Remarks

Concluding Remarks
• Half a decade ago, expectations for CSP deployment werehigher than the current situation: most long-term forecasts andcountry plans have not been fulfilled.
• There is not only one reason for this:
the quick cost reduction of PV made it a more attractive alternative (so some efforts were moved from CSP to PV);
several other initiatives were halted, hoping that a PV-like cost reduction would bring CSP’s LCOE closer to grid parity;
when the cost reduction was not as quick as expected, the sector risked entering a vicious circle as a slower deployment further slowed cost reduction.
![Page 50: Concentrated Solar Power - cleanenergysolutions.org · largest public research and testing center dedicated to solar concentration technologies. • The Solar Platform Sanlúcar la](https://reader034.fdocuments.in/reader034/viewer/2022050521/5fa52a4308f160015f131a1d/html5/thumbnails/50.jpg)
Concluding Remarks
50
• The future development of CSP is linked to its ability to providevalue to the electric system in comparison with other alternatives.
• CSP’s strengths, beyond possible cost break through, are:
cheap storage; demand management capabilities; ancillary services, etc.
• There is potential for cost reduction in both hard and soft costs, butsome chapters (civil works, power block, BoP, EPC cost andOwner’s cost) have barely improved despite its significant impact.
• Soft costs are not a typical target in R&D programs.

Concluding Remarks
51
Hybridization can be a key to the future of CSP:
• Hybridizing CSP with fuels can ease the path, reducingemissions while providing track record to CSP, and time toamortize plants in operation;
• CSP integration costs are as low as conventional, especiallyif hybridized;
• Risk is concentrated on investment in CSP, and on operationin conventional; hybrids can have a better balance betweenboth, diluting them.
