11 Agenda Company Profile Advanced technology in receiver tubes How to reduce LCOE R&D pipeline 10

12 Generating capacity/kwh How to reduce LCOE > Reduce LCOE For a Parabolic Trough /Linear Fresnel solar power plant: LCOE = CAPEX + n i=1 n i=1 OPEX t 1 + r t Electricity Generated t 1 + r t To cut down LCOE means: Energy Yield OPEX Degradation CAPEX???Kwh??? year 11

13 How to reduce LCOE > Increase energy yield Goal: Higher Lower Higher Lower heat Higher performance Higher energy yield Approach: Thermal and optical performance QUARZ Inline thermal and optical performance Optical performance measurements of ISE New generation HCE(UVR 2014) model will be available in NREL SAM library. 12

14 DLR QUARZ Tests Heat Loss Test Optical Efficiency Test The measurements show a specific heat loss of receivers < 265 W/m at 400 absorber temperature The optical efficiency of the receivers is measured to η opt, rec 103 % η opt, rec (DLR 70-1,RT) 13

15 DLR QUARZ Tests 14 *Data from DLR QUARZ test report

16 DLR QUARZ Tests Table 6: optical performance measurement results, with the optical efficiency η opt,rec ID η opt,rec inη opt,rec (DLR70-1,RT) Comment *Data from DLR QUARZ test report 15

17 CIEMAT PSA Inline Testing 75m HTF test loop 18 Receiver tubes under testing in PSA Thermal loss and optical efficiency tests 16

18 Fraunhofer ISE coating tests 17

19 How to reduce LCOE > Reduce OPEX Goal: Reduce the breakage of receiver tubes Extend quality guarantee period Lower OPEX Inner Mongolia Demo-LOOP: 144 UVR 2012 receiver tubes LAVATHERM ST heat transfer fluid inside Operating under Environment Temperature up to -38 Wind speed up to 28m/s Operating after 18 months No leakage No breakage 18

20 How to reduce LCOE > Reduce OPEX Inner Mongolia Demo-LOOP Technology Parabolic trough Status Operational Start operation June 2013 Climatope The annual average temperature : 5.8 Lowest temperature in winter : -35 Windy : max 26m/s Sandy Solar-Field Inlet Temp 290 Solar-Field Outlet Temp

21 How to reduce LCOE > Reduce OPEX Inner Mongolia Demo-LOOP test results *Data from CSP service test report 20

22 How to reduce LCOE > Lifetime stability Goal: Stability of absorber coating Stability of GTMS Stability of bellows Stability of Anti-reflection coating Approach: Aging test of receiver QUARZ Overheating test Thermal cycling test Bellow fatigue test Lifetime stability of electricity generation Absorber coating Aging Fraunhofer ISE More tests will be applied in the future Condensation Test ISO Taber Abrasor Test 21

23 DLR QUARZ Aging tests Overheating test/thermal cycling test 480 for 1000h for 100 cycles No changes in heat loss and optical efficiency Bellow fatigue test Over cycles 24h waiting period No leakage 22

24 How to reduce LCOE > Reduce CAPEX Goal: Decrease the cost of receiver tubes Reduce initial investment Reduce CAPEX Approach: Capable to produce absorber coating machine, Cut down manufacturing plant investment for receiver factory localization Innovative sealing method, 3.3 borosilicate glass can be used in GTMS sealing mass production at low cost Rapid expansion of production capacity Financial support from Chinese Policy Banks to save the initial investment for out customer 23

25 Agenda Company Profile Advanced technology in receiver tubes How to reduce LCOE R&D pipeline 24

26 R&D pipeline Lager dimension receiver tubes to fit the larger collectors(l Aperture >7m) Further optimized absorber coating suitable for higher temperatures Receiver length up to 5.5m with higher effective length and less welding work New generation receiver design and raw material certification suitable for thermal oil(450 ) and molten salt(550 ) Further reduction of LCOE 25
