ABSTRACT:
This study was performed to estimate the value and potential economic impact of advanced water/steam stand-alone central receiver solar-thermal plants, in the role of electric generating stations, on the ENEL system in Italy. The analysis was based on detailed modeling of an advanced

water/steam stand-alone plant on the ENEL system. Economic and performance sensitivity to collector area and thermal storage were investigated. The study indicates that for the projected reference heliostat costs ($300/m2) the advanced water/steam stand-alone solar plants does not appear to be economically justifiable on the ENEL system in the 1990 time frame.
