Parabolic-Trough Technology Roadmap January 1999 THERMAL STORAGE Thermal storage can be valuable in a number of operating conditions, such as markets requiring production shifts (e.g., where demand peaks occur in the evening) or locations where partly cloudy conditions are common and short-term buffering would be beneficial (e.g., Hawaii). Trough system feasibility studies have identified the need for thermal storage systems in locations such as northern Morocco, Crete, and Hawaii. The system usually postulated is a concrete-oil-iron sensible-heat storage system, though LUZ proposed the use of phase-change salts in a cascade design. However, neither system is ready for deployment: serious engineering development and prototype implementation are required for the first, whereas more basic development is required for the latter. A molten salt similar to the one used in the Solar Two power tower system, but for lower temperatures, also deserves evaluation. Success in this area will significantly extend the marketability of trough technology. Table 4.
