1 Solarlite Concentrated Solar Thermal (CST) Energy Technology and Applications

2 Solarlite Company Background Competence: EPC of solar thermal parabolic trough plants (CSP) for power and process heat production Innovation: Direct Steam Generation (DSG), parabolic trough collectors (PTC) with composite body and thin glass mirrors robust, light-weight design Product: SL4600+/SL5770 high precision shaped parabolic trough collector for application up to 550 C Advantage: CO²-free energy production, low steam and electricity production cost (LCOE/LCOT), modular design, easy operation and maintenance Research Partners: German Aero Space Center (DLR), University RWTH Aachen, Research center Jülich, CIEMAT Spain, PSA Plataforma Solar Almeria, Rostock University Seite 2

3 Operational Principle Of Trough The collector is rotated from east to west following and tracking the sun Parabolic mirrors reflect & concentrate solar radiation on a focal point where a metal pipe is mounted These pipes have special coating that absorb and converts solar energy into heat Heat transfer fluids like water, oil or molten salt is pumped through the pipe to remove the heat and use it for thermal applications Operates only during daytime when there is sunshine; heat can be supplied during night using a thermal storage system Seite 3

4 Proven And Bankable Technology SL 5770 TROUGH DETAILS Segment Length Aperture Width Gross Aperture Area of 1 segment Collector Length Focal Length 12 m 5.77 m 69.3 m 2 up to 120 m 1.71 m Rim Angle 80.3 Concentration factor 82.5 Deviation from ideal parabola - RMS Maximum operating windspeed < 1.2 mrad 50 km/h Maximum survival windspeed 126 km/h Seite 4

5 Technology Advantages Lightweight and rigid : high wind resistance Silvered glass mirror: long life, high reflectivity Modular design: ideal for small and large applications alike Vacuum receiver: less heat loss, high efficiency Custom DSG receiver: tackles heat fluctuation Air stable operation: long life time, less maintenance and repair Hydraulic tracking: greater accuracy, robust, long life time Intelligent control: No overheating, automatic shutdown during black out & extreme weather Seite 5

12 Local Solar Radiation Conditions In India India has direct solar radiation resources ranging from 1100 to 2200 kwh/m²/a. The green marked areas are the best irradiated regions of India that ensures up to 300 days of solar operation less impact from Monsoon; nearly 20% of India benefits from good radiation The blue marked areas are the greater portion of the country (> 50% of India) and has radiation in the range of 1450 to 1700 kwh/m²/a. This ensures up to 260 days of solar operation The red marked areas are not suitable for solar thermal applications, due to low radiation and bad weather conditions Zone B Zone C Zone B Zone B Zone B Zone A Zone A Zone B Zone C Zone A Seite 12
