Investing in concentrated solar power: 22 gigawatts of CSP forecast by 2025Entelligent
This document discusses the growth potential of concentrating solar power (CSP) as an investment opportunity. It notes that CSP, unlike solar PV, can store thermal energy for use after sundown using molten salt or oil. The document forecasts 22 gigawatts of CSP capacity by 2025, representing 27% annual growth. It argues that improvements to energy storage technologies could allow CSP to provide baseload power and compete with fossil fuels. Companies developing more efficient CSP technologies and storage methods are highlighted as investment opportunities.
TXU proposed building 9 GW of new generation capacity in Texas to meet growing demand. They examined different generation technologies including wind, gas, supercritical coal (SCPC), and integrated gasification combined cycle (IGCC). While wind and gas are viable near-term options, SCPC was identified as the optimal economic choice today due to its relatively low fuel costs and abundant domestic coal reserves. IGCC was seen as only a potential longer-term solution due to high costs and construction timelines that are too long to meet the urgent capacity needs in Texas. TXU plans to implement state-of-the-art emissions controls to make SCPC an environmentally sound technology as well.
TXU proposed building 9 GW of new generation capacity in Texas to meet growing demand.

Revealing the value of flexibility in electricity markets - September 2013Stephen Woodhouse
The attached slides outline our ideas on how the value of flexibility could be traded in the European electricity markets, within the context of the Target Model. Contact Stephen Woodhouse at Pöyry for further details of an ongoing study
Flexibility will be increasingly important for operating electricity systems as renewable targets lead to more variable generation. Current incentives may not sufficiently reward flexibility. A proposal is made to (1) allow intraday cross-border trading of flexibility, (2) define balancing services by capability rather than standardized products, and (3) optimize resources across locations and timeframes through market mechanisms. This could help reveal the true value of flexibility.

1. THE COMMERCIAL PATH FORWARD FOR CSP
TECHNOLOGIES
Dr. Frederick H. Morse
Morse Associates, Inc.
Washington, DC
23 April 2001
2. MARKET STATUS AND POTENTIAL
CSP is, or is close to, commercial/entry market, with the
potential market large enough to justify needed subsidies.
Market expansion and market acceptance lie ahead for all CSP
technologies, with troughs closer to that stage. Structured programs,
with subsidies and policies, are needed to move CSP technologies
into the main market.
The Commercial Path Forward for CSP Technologies 2
3. MARKET STATUS
The commercialization path may be described in five phases:
DE
Pilot Testing
CR
Commercial Validation
PT
Commercial Niche Market (entry)
Market Expansion
Market Acceptance
Conclusion – Market expansion and market acceptance lie ahead for all CSP
technologies, with troughs closer to that stage. Structured programs are
needed to move CSP technologies through these last three phases.
The Commercial Path Forward for CSP Technologies 3
4. Market Projections
Estimates for installed capacity range widely from:
1,800 – 8,300 MW by 2010
20,000 – 45,000 MW by 2020
Today’s capacity is 354 MW of commercial PT power.
Conclusion – The market potential for CSP appears to be large and
worth the effort required to access it. A rigorous assessment of the global
potential of each CSP technology is needed.
The Commercial Path Forward for CSP Technologies 4
6. MARKET TAKE-OFF PRICES
Solar Thermal Power Technologies
Technology Market Application Take-off Prices
Dish Grid-connected 5 – 10 ¢/kWh
sub-station
Distributed Generation 6 – 12 ¢/kWh
Rural Generation – Diesel 12 – 30 ¢/kWh
Tower Central Station – 4 – 6 ¢/kWh

Trough Central Station – 4 – 6 ¢/kWh
Intermediate
Central Station – Peaking 6 – 8 ¢/kWh
The Commercial Path Forward for CSP Technologies 44
The Commercial Path Forward for CSP Technologies 6
7. CSP INSTALLED CAPACITY REQUIRED TO REACH TOP
Given supportive subsidies and policies, estimates are:
Dish 0.1 MW pilot systems today. Will require several 10 MW
size plants, perhaps several hundred MWs, to reach TOP.
Tower 10 MW validation systems today. Solar Tres will be
15 MW and will need to be followed by one or two GEF plants in
the 30-40 MW size, then followed by many more in the 100 –
200 MW size for 1-2 thousand MWs
Trough 354 MW today. Need about 5-10 more in the 100 – 200
MW size, perhaps a total of 1-2 thousand MWs.
Caution – Installed capacity to reach TOP is very difficult to
estimate due to its complex dependencies.
The Commercial Path Forward for CSP Technologies 7
9. COST REDUCTION POTENTIAL
The three CSP technologies can reach their take-off price points in
next five years with a relatively small number of projects, further
technology development and subsidies.
Electricity costs – must reduce capital costs via technology and project
learning curve improvements and reduce debt service via better
financing and subsidies and reduced risk.
Dish/Engine Manufacturing scale-up to 1,000 units/yr
required
Trough/Tower Many available options identified to reach
take-off costs
With incentives, the necessary “virtuous cycles” of production scale-up –
cost reduction – increased market share are feasible and could be
rapidly established for all CSP technologies.
The Commercial Path Forward for CSP Technologies 9
10. The Virtuous Cycle
Market opportunities
markets
broaden market lead to increased
production, lowering
costs. Sales increase,
costs

reduce
leading to further
rises in production
and opening up new
sales
increase
market horizons.
The Commercial Path Forward for CSP Technologies 10
11. CR/PT COST REDUCTION POTENTIAL
To reach take-off prices must reduce capital costs and debt service costs.
Capital costs can be reduced by manufacturing scale-up, technology
improvements, clustering, cycle changes and larger plant sizes.
Debt service costs can be reduced by grants, low interest loans and tax
credits.
The California plants have demonstrated a significant cost reduction due to
investor cost reductions, O&M cost reductions and significant technology
improvements
Conclusion – Build more and larger plants with improved technology
and lower debt service.
The Commercial Path Forward for CSP Technologies 11

The Commercial Path Forward for CSP Technologies 25
26. GEF COMPREHENSIVE GLOBAL MARKET INITIATIVE
A structured global initiative is required to accelerate CSP markets by driving
the cost of CSP generated electricity into the competitive range.
Strategic Alliance – the creation of a global CSP network that could lead
to a strategic alliance of principal public and private stockholders.
Commitments – The operational development of the initiative would rely
on explicit commitments of key stakeholders which would be defined and
secured through the network and verified at an international executive
level conference, brining together the highest ranking decision makers of
all interested entities.
Result – a strategic market intervention leveraging an unprecedented
volume of venture capital for CSP investments through an alliance of
public and private technology sponsors that would help to pull the
market through aggregation and economies of scale.
Conclusion – The time is ripe to bring together the projects with the
policies to drive CSP into the competitive markets.
