Published at Journal of Energy Storage – The cost-competitiveness of concentrated solar power with thermal energy storage in power systems with high solar penetration levels

Published at Journal of Energy Storage – The cost-competitiveness of concentrated solar power with thermal energy storage in power systems with high solar penetration levels

Abstract: In this paper, we show that concentrated solar power (CSP) with thermal storage is an economically attractive technology to achieve high solar penetration levels. To this end, we utilize an alternative framework of net levelized cost of electricity...
