“…In view of the operating temperature dependence of solar collector thermal losses (see 3.3.1), the selection of the most suitable solar collector technology is directly related to the heat demand temperature (in turn related with the solar integration strategy adopted in the definition of the system layout: process or supply level (Muster et al 2015)). Considering both the range of process temperature in different industrial sectors (Lauterbach et al 2012;IRENA 2015b) and the most suitable range of operating temperatures of the different collector technologies, the scheme presented in Fig.3.1summarizes this information and can be regarded as a preliminary step into defining the most suitable technologies for the operating conditions found on a prescribed project.…”

“…Moreover, Frasquet [20] developed an online and open source simulation tool for solar thermal systems coupled to an industrial process, with a special focus on Linear Fresnel Reflectors. Subsequently, it evolved into a web-based simulation tool called RESSSPI [21], which considers certain integration schemes based on those defined in [22]. In addition, TRNSYS software [23] has been widely utilized to assess solar thermal systems coupled with different industrial applications.…”

Industrial energy accounts for a large percentage of global consumption and, thus, it is a target for decarbonization by renewable and in particular solar energy adoption. Low uncertainty simulation tools can reduce the financial risk of solar projects, fostering the transition to a sustainable energy system. Several simulation tools are readily available to developers; differences exist in the format of input data and complexity of physical and numerical models. These tools can provide a variety of results from technical to financial and sensitivity analysis, often producing significant differences in yield assessment and uncertainty levels. IEA SHC Task 64/SolarPACES Task IV—Subtask C aims to address the lack of standard simulation tools for Solar Heating of Industrial Processes (SHIP) plants. This article describes the collaborative work developed by the researchers participating in the task. The identification and classification of several currently available simulation tools are performed on the basis of their capabilities and simulation approaches. A case study of solar heat supply to a copper mining operation is defined, allowing a comparison of the results produced by equivalent simulation tools. The proposed methodology identifies the main sources of differences among the simulation tools, the assessment of the deviation considering a series of statistical metrics for different time scales, and identifies their limitations and bias. The effects of physical characteristics of SHIP plants and different simulation approaches are discussed and quantified. The obtained results allow us to develop a basic guideline for a standardized yield assessment procedure with known uncertainties. Creating this common framework could partially reduce the risk perceived by the finance industry regarding SHIP systems.
