This study is a necessary foundation that benefits teams working on solar technologies through research institutions, government departments, and private engineering groups.
In conclusion, solar thermal power generation is a promising technology with the potential to play a crucial role in the global transition to renewable energy. By overcoming current challenges, it can significantly contribute to sustainable and reliable energy production.
Consequently, the role of concentrated solar power (CSP) and thermal energy storage (TES) relative to photovoltaics (PV) and batteries has not been clearly evaluated or established for such highly reliable, 100% renewable systems. Electricity generation by CSP is currently more costly than by PV 1. Introduction
The thermal energy storage is employed to reduce the effect of diurnal and seasonal variations in solar radiation on the performance of the solar thermal plant. Additionally, thermal energy storage increases the dispatchability of a solar thermal power generation system.
5. Conclusions Concentrating solar power (CSP) with thermal energy storage (TES) occupies a small but persistent niche in an idealized highly reliable least-cost electricity system with 100% of generation from variable renewable resources.
Rankine, Brayton, and Stirling cycle are commonly used thermodynamic cycles for solar thermal power generation. The integration of thermal energy storage and hybridization of solar thermal energy systems with conventional power generation systems improves the performance and dispatchability of the solar thermal systems.
