The generation of electricity from solar thermal source has continued to garner more attention due to the very attractive environmental performance, the applicability to small distributed users and as alternative to the fossil fuels power generation. Indeed, solar thermal energy, through the coupling with ORC systems, becomes fit for electric power generation as well and, with a proper thermal storage, can deliver more equivalent hours than other residential systems. The paper analyses, by means of system modelling simulation, a small solar power plant composed by a CPC heat pipe solar collector device feeding a thermal storage, an ORC and an absorber unit. Beside the analysis of configuration and design, this paper proposes an economic analysis taking into consideration the applicable incentive. The evaluation highlights the economic viability of the proposed system and tries to define a roadmap to optimize results consisting in acceptable PBT and positive NPV.

“…Although there is a rich literature on CSP technologies relating to engineering and economic aspects (Chaanaoui et al, 2016;Lilliestam et al, 2017;Villarini et al, 2011), it has so far received very little attention in the literature on innovation or sustainability transitions, with a small number of exceptions (Hu and Wu, 2013;Lilliestam et al, 2018;Vieira de Souza and Gilmanova Cavalcante, 2017;Wang et al, 2017). Here, we first help fill some of this gap by providing a description of Concentrated Solar Power technologies (section 3.1), and a descriptive overview of sector developments globally (section 3.2), and in China (section 3.3).…”

Abstract. Photovoltaic power is characterized by higher costs than coal-fired technologies. Thus, photovoltaic systems require policy support to become more affordable. This is even more important if the goals -set by Directive 2009/28/EC-must be achieved by 2020. The present paper carefully describes the economical feasibility of a large scale photovoltaic plant, with specific regard to the Italian situation. An Italian case study is investigated and attention is paid to an extremely important tool, i.e. Project Financing. In order to better understand the economical assessment, recent public incentives and supporting measures are taken into account. After analyzing the cash flows and evaluating the Net Present Value (NPV) and the Internal Rate of Return (IRR), the resultsobtained by the simulation for different Feed-In Tariff (FIT)s-show that the income is influenced by the date of commissioning and by the amount of incentives.
