Case 1: Riyadh baseline hourly generation CSP-PT SM = 6. PTC-PV hybrid system ( Case 2) is simulated by adding a PV plant with 45 MWe AC output based on 63 MWe DC with ratio of 1:4. The solar multiple of the PTC was then reduced to match the 79% capacity factor of the baseline case, with the resulting solar multiple of 3.
Hlusiak et al. [ 15] studied a hybrid CSP + PV plant in Morocco composed of a solar thermal collector field with thermal energy storage (TES), a PV system, and a fossil fuel burner, to assess the operation (daily and annual), and the LCOE of the plant.
In Riyadh, the solar multiple ranged from 2.9 to 3 with the PV portion of the plant having a nameplate capacity equal to that of the CSP portion and 1.95 for a case with the PV nameplate capacity 60% greater than the CSP portion. For these same cases in Tabuk, the solar multiples were 1.78–1.85 and 1.6 simultaneously.
This results in a baseline LCOE of 0.177 $/kWh for Riyadh and 0.137 $/kWh for Tabuk. 3. The hybrid concept with a PV plant added to the CSP original baseload plant, the results show a reduction in LCOE of 18% for Riyadh and 7% for Tabuk keeping the plant capacity factor at a high 79%.
Starke et al. [ 10] studied hybridizing a CSP plant with a PV system to increase the overall plant capacity factor by allowing thermal energy to be stored while the PV plant directly producing to the grid and which supports to have a fully dispatchable solar utility plant system for a site in the Atacama Desert.
After multiple iterations to achieve the same capacity factor of the Riyadh plant which is 79% the solar multiple is 3.5 with an LCOE of 0.137 $/kWh. This is a rather strong contrast to the Riyadh case which required a solar multiple of 6 and is attributed to the high DNI in Tabuk versus Riyadh. Fig. 14. Case 1: Tabuk baseline CSP-PT SM = 3.5.
