    Research output: NRELTechnical Report

    Abstract

    The main objective of the Small Solar Thermal Electric Power Systems Study is to project the mid-1990 cost and performance of selected generic solar thermal electric power systems for utility applications and to rank these systems using a set of seven criteria which reflect the most important aspects of their future commercial acceptability. The Small Solar Thermal Power System Program, one of several application-oriented programs sponsored by the Thermal Power Systems Branch, Division of Central Solar Technology of the Department of Energy, has been initiated to explore the technical, economic, and institutional feasibility of providing remote load centers, small communities, rural areas, and industrial users with supplementary energy sources.
