Reassessment of the potential for centralized and distributed
The successful development of solar energy primarily depends on the scientific and effective evaluation of the photovoltaic power generation potential. This study re-estimated the
Hybridized CSP plants present different types and levels of synergy, depending on the hybrid energy source, the location of the plant, the CSP technology used, and the plant configuration. Coal, natural gas, and biofuel hybrids with CSP present many opportunities to inject solar heat at various temperatures.
Another hybrid energy source that can be coupled with solar thermal is geothermal energy. Like solar/biofuel combinations, solar/geothermal has the potential for purely renewable energy systems. Geothermal heat is somewhat dispatchable and provides some reliability for the system.
The purpose of this review article is to highlight different energy sources with which CSP may be hybridized and provide an overview of the possible hybrid configurations, with advantages and disadvantages discussed. These energy sources include coal, natural gas, biofuels, geothermal energy, solar PV, and wind energy.
Hybridization with photovoltaics Another common technology for hybridization with solar thermal is solar photovoltaic energy. Although both of these technologies use the same energy source (i.e., the sun), the combination of the two actually presents some fairly strong synergies.
The hybrid system can directly transfer surplus solar energy into high-quality heat for storage using a rotatable PV/heat receiver. The simulated results demonstrated that the hybrid system effectively improves power generation, optimally utilizes TES capacity, and reduces the levelized cost of electricity (LCOE).
This paper proposed a switchable hybrid system that combines concentrating photovoltaic/concentrating solar power (CPV/CSP) technology with thermal energy storage (TES) to achieve flexible electricity and thermal generation by adjusting the incident solar flux of photovoltaic (PV).
