SOLAR RESOURCES ASSESSMENT
• High uncertainty
- Humidity, dust, sand storms
- Forecast from satellite data vs real
measured data on site 20% lower in
similar weather conditions
- Critical impact in the business case
- KEY -> on-site meteo station &
good resource assessment
• Optimized LCOE and plant
performance
- Solar field optimization according to
the available solar resources

WATER AVAILABILITY
• Middle East
- Water scarcity
- Power & Water problem coupled
• Air cooled condenser
- 80% less water consumption
• Mirrors washing strategies
– Adjust washing cycles to targeted mirrors
reflectivity
– Reduce washing if energy is dumped (e.g.
summer)

GRID INTEGRATION
• Energy demand
– 80-90% Cooling
• Winter peak
– 50% summer peak -> matching with
DNI yearly distribution
• Summer typical day
– Midday peak associated with cooling
– Small evening peak associated with
lighting
– High night temperature - > Night
demand similar to day demand
• Low REN penetration ~ 10%
- Short or mid term TES can help to
reach the midday and evening peaks
• High REN penetration ~ 50%
- CSP must “support” the system
- Long term TES match the demand

INDUSTRIAL INTEGRATION
• Understand that social goals are important too
• Local industry
– Existing industry. What can be supplied locally nowadays?
– New industry. What can be supplied locally to reduce the cost?
• Jobs creation
– Knowledge transfer
• International & local partnerships is KEY
