NREL''s concentrating solar power (CSP) program develops models for engineering design, system performance, and technology deployment while investigating the value of dispatchable utility-scale solar power to regional grid networks. We track the cost and performance of CSP technologies.
Concentrating solar power (CSP), when integrated with thermal energy storage (TES), can address both intermittency and storage needs by providing dispatchable renewable electricity.
The capital costs of CSP plants comprise the upfront investment required for site preparation, technology components like mirrors/receivers, power blocks, the balance of plant, and engineering/procurement/construction. Capacity-based capital costs ($/kW) indicate the total installed costs per unit power capacity.
Global weighted average electricity capacity factors for CSP plants rose 66 % from 2011 to 2021. Global weighted average LCoE for CSP fell 68 % from $0.31/kWh in 2010 to $0.10/kWh in 2022. Capital costs for CSP fell 50 % in the last decade to $3000–11000/kW. Adding 6–15 h of thermal storage at $20–60/kW is now considered economical.
Our photovoltaic systems and energy storage products are engineered for reliability, safety, and efficient deployment. All systems include comprehensive monitoring and control systems with remote management capabilities.
