2 Fact not fiction: The true potential of concentrating solar thermal power 19/05/14 Prof JL (Wikus) van Niekerk Prof Frank Dinter Director of CRSES Eskom Chair in CSP 14 May
3 Outline Solar resource and potential for CSP in SA CSP Technologies Advantages of CSP with storage system Current CSP projects in South Africa
4 Utilising the potential of the sun as source of energy I 4 The sun is the world s largest source of energy The part of the earth directed to the sun is permanently exposed to a radiant power of 1.73*10 11 MW which is equal to the capacity of 173 million big coal power plants Each year the sun sends over 1 billion TWh of energy to the earth which is equal to 60,000 times the world s electricity needs From a mathematical perspective, less than 3% of the surface area of the Sahara would be sufficient to meet the world s energy demand with solar power plants Unfortunately the utilisation of solar energy is not that easy due to the low power density Area required to supply the world, the EU-25 or MENA with solar power from the Sahara.

7 What could be possible with CSP in SA? 7
8 8 What is CSP? Makes use of mirrors to concentrate the sun s rays on receivers that absorb the heat and then use it for process heat or electricity generation, hence concentrating solar power, or CSP
9 Storage Boiler 9 CSP plant layout Grid interface Steam turbine Generator Parabolic trough collector Condenser Dry/wet cooling

11 World s biggest trough plant with TES Solana (Abengoa) now in operation 280 MWe, 6 hours storage (molten salt), Solar field 2.2 km 2, Area ha, Annual energy production of 980 GWh. 11
12 12 First CSP plant to demonstrate baseload Gemasolar in Spain 20MWe, 120MWth 15 hours storage 24h per day full load in its first summer Latest: 24h per day almost all year (year 3)

15 More than 2.3 GW of STE plants in operation in Spain Most of them with storage systems to produce electricity also in the evening peak hours Storage medium is a molten salt mixture (60/40) of sodium nitrate (NaNO 3 ) and potassium nitrate (KNO 3 ) 15 Source: Protermosolar
16 Advantages of CSP with thermal energy storage 16 The main advantage of CSP technology against other RES as PV or wind power is the capability to provide dispatchable power by storing solar energy through thermal energy storage Flexible and predictable electricity generation on demand Source: DLR
17 Advantages of CSP with thermal energy storage 17 Flexible and predictable electricity generation Avoidance of production interruptions resulting from the intermittency of solar radiation Generation of solar power decoupled from weather conditions and time Shifting of power generation to periods of highest demand 24 h/d continuous production capability Regulation and frequency response Support for power quality Contribution to system flexibility supporting the integration of other RE sources

21 21 CSP Value Proposition and Cost of CSP in SA Only renewable energy technology with a proven, affordable, large-scale energy storage solution (except of course hydro pump storage) LCOE already less than half that of peaking OCGT plants in South Africa Renewable energy technology with the largest potential to establish a significant manufacturing industry, also for the export market RE IPP PP has recognised the value of storage that CSP plant can offer and hence in Round 3 (and 3b) allowed 2.7 times the tariff in the evening, 5-10pm R 3.94/kWh

25 Symphony of Renewables 25
26 26 Conclusions CSP is already, or will in the near future, be cost competitive with mid-merit or peaking power plants in South Africa By taking all the fuel costs into account over the lifetime of a coal fired plant, CSP is already competitive in SA CSP, with storage, is an ideal fit for SA s demand curve with a peak in the early evening Solar electricity, PV and CSP, complement each other in areas of high solar irradiance Potential to localise the manufacture of CSP components is much greater than for many other technologies (especially nuclear), but it will need a guaranteed future market in SA of sufficient size
