CSP with storage: Maximizing renewable energy share
How it works
Examples of plants
Abengoas solar tower with

PS10 (Spain)
steam storage,
During the day the solar field provides

energy to both storage and turbine
During the night storage provides energy
to the turbine
Abengoas Solana Power plant with 280 MW

and 6 hours of storage (USA)
14

Integrated Solar Combined Cycle: Securing 24 hours energy supply
How it works
Examples of plants
Abengoas hybrid solar/gas combined-cycle plant

in Hassi-Rmel
During the day the solar field provides

energy
Abengoas hybrid solar/coal hybrid Cameo plant
During the night plant works with fossil

fuel
15

Photovoltaics: Offsetting the power consumption
How it works
Examples of plants
Abengoa HCPV technology at ISFOC (Spain)
During the day the solar field produces

total kWh consumed during all day
Abengoas conventional PV power plant (Spain)
During the night plant takes energy from

the electricity grid

Summary
17
Solar technologies provides an alternative and permanent energy source
Solar helps to reduce the consumption of fossil fuels

- By offering a cost effective alternative to conventional power plants
Solar helps to diversify the local energy mix
- Reduction of dependency on petroleum, natural gas, uranium
Solar helps to secure energy and water supply
- In locations where fuel is transported by road
Solar is economically interesting
- Brings to the region billions of Riyals per project constructed
- Solar is one the energies with the lowest operating expense
18
Most of the value of solar technology can be locally manufactured
Abengoa Solar 38kWp High Concentrating Photovoltaic system
Technology uses common materials such as steel, glass, aluminum, concrete

Preferably manufacturing using existing capacity
Technology with well adapted to Saudi Arabia weather conditions
19
Solar technologies brings innovation to Saudi Arabia
Security of
supply &
enhancer of
electricity grid
R&D &
Innovation
A R&D and innovation value

B Local industry development
Sustainable
growth
Human capacity
development
C Training & job creation

D Return on investment for local
communities
International
relations &
electricity
trading
Local
manufacturing
E Sustainable growth
F Better energy quality: possibility of
dispatchability, more predictable,
closer in time to energy peaks
Summary
