FUEL FROM THE SKY: SOLAR POWER’S POTENTIAL FOR WESTERN ENERGY SUPPLY Exhibit 27: Generation of 1,250 MW of Solar with 3.5 Hours of Storage During Nevada Power’s Summer Peak Month (August) Source: RDI Consulting If we now add 3.5 hours of full-load heat storage to the 1,250-MW solar power plant, the picture changes dramatically. In Exhibit 27, we show the same 1,250-MW plant but now with storage. From sunrise until around 7:30 a.m. the plant stores all the energy collected by the solar field and then slowly ramps up to full load, which it reaches by 1 p.m. (13:00 hours). At this point, no energy is stored, instead the heat storage is filled with 3.5 hours of full-load energy and the plant begins to tap into its reservoir. With hours of full-load storage available, the plant can now contin- ue to run (with decreasing output) until midnight. The solar plant still delivered the same amount of energy to the market as earlier. However, the important difference is that the plant now produces electricity until midnight, at which time Nevada Power’s load has dropped to 2,000 MW. The load will not reach a level as high as 2,000 MW again until the next morning. By that time, the solar power plant will begin to dispatch again. Therefore, 1,250 MW of solar generating capacity with 3.5 hours of full-load storage is able to displace over 1,000 MW of conventional capacity in the 3,000-MW Nevada Power market. Outside the peak month of August, the 1,250-MW solar plant with 3.5 hours of heat storage con- tinues to provide a similar level of functionality, because, while the daily energy production of the solar power plant is lower outside of the summer season, so is the average load, as a large por- tion of Nevada Power’s load is due to air conditioning. For most months outside the summer, Nevada Power’s demand falls off more rapidly than solar output. This will be described in more detail in the section, “Seasonality.” RDI Consulting performed a similar analysis for Southern California Edison’s (SCE) load for a hypothetical solar power plant with storage located in the Mojave Desert. Again, the results are similar. Only a few hours of storage are needed before the solar plant can dramatically reduce the need for back-up capacity in the market. 56
