1.0 Introduction This report responds to section 934(c) of the Energy Policy Act of 2005 which requested that the Secretary of Energy: (1) assess conflicting guidance on the economic potential of concentrating solar power for electricity production received from the National Research Council in the report entitled “Renewable Power Pathways: A Review of the U.S. Department of Energy’s Renewable Energy Programs” and dated 2000 and subsequent reviews of that report funded by the Department; and (2) provide an assessment of the potential impact of technology used to concentrate solar power for electricity before, or concurrent with, submission of the budget for fiscal year 2008. 2.0 Task I: Assessment of Conflicting CSP Reports Between 2000 and 2003, four reports were released that attempted to assess the commercial potential of CSP. A timeline of these reports is provided in Table 1. Table 1. List of Pertinent Publications Publication “Renewable Power Pathways: A Review of the U.S. Department of Energy’s Renewable Energy Programs” “Feasibility of 1,000 Megawatts of Solar Power in the Southwest by 2006” “Critique of the draft Sargent & Lundy Assessment of Cost and Performance Forecasts for Concentrating Solar Power” “Assessment of Parabolic Trough and Power Tower Solar Technology Cost and Performance Forecasts” NRC Assessment of CSP in 200019 Author NRC DOE NRC S&L Date 2000 August 2002 November 2002 May 2003 In 2000, the National Academies’ National Research Council (NRC) conducted an evaluation of DOE’s renewable energy programs of which one program was the Concentrating Solar Power Program. In its report, the NRC reached the following recommendations regarding CSP technologies (see Figure 1): • For all intents and purposes, power-tower and power-trough technologies could be deployed today. However, no buyers have come forward for initiating commercial operations in the United States. • The Office of Power Technologies [now, Solar Energy Technologies Program] should limit or halt its research and development on power-tower and power-trough technologies because further refinements would not lead to deployment. 20 • Solar dish/engines seem destined for niche operations and likely to be used in hybrid systems with other power-generation technologies in remote off-grid areas. 1PDF Image | 2007 Concentrating Solar Power USA DOE
