Technical FAQs 4

How long does a CSP-T station last?

In this study, a CSP-T station with 2 × 50 MW capacity, dual-tank solar nitrate energy storage, and 12 h of energy storage time is selected. The CSP-T station was preset to be located in Dunhuang, Gansu Province, with a planned operational lifespan of 30 years.

What is the EPT of CSP-T solar power station?

In addition, the EPT of the CSP-T station is related to the local average annual normal direct radiation (Table 11). In western Xizang, which has the most abundant solar energy resources in China, the energy recovery period of the molten salt tower photovoltaic power station will be reduced to 3.92 years.

Is CSP technology with thermal energy storage better than other energy sources?

4. Conclusions From a point of view of the levelized cost of energy (LCoE) the CSP technology with thermal energy storage (TES) is still superior than other energy sources, even so the CSP plant with TES presents low LCoE with long hours of storage.

How much storage capacity does a CSP-TEs have?

In the case of CSP-TES, they analyzed from 6 to h 18 h of storage capacity. The study determined that the most expensive CSP-TES configuration had a storage capacity of 18 h and a solar factor of 3.
