ABSTRACT:
The principal objective of the Robins Air Force Base Solar Cogeneration Conceptual Design Program is to develop a conceptual design and cost estimate for a demonstration solar facility to generate electricity and deliver process steam to the existing base distribution systems. The facility

is to have the potential for construction and operation by 1986, make use of existing solar thermal technology and provide the best economics for the overall application. Specific objectives are to l) prepare a Solar Cogeneration Facility Specification, 2) select a preferred facility configuration and prepare a conceptual design, 3) establish the performance and economic attractiveness of the facility, and 4) prepare a development plan for a demonstration program at Robins Air Force Base. The Westinghouse Advanced Energy Systems Division with the support of Heery and Heery, Inc., Foster /heeler Solar Development Corporation, the U.S. Air Force Logistics Command, and Georgia Power Company has selected a conceptual design for a solar cogeneration facility that utilizes the latest DOE central receiver technology, effectively utilizes the energy collected in the application, operates base loaded every sunny day of the year, and is applicable to innumerable industrial and military facilities throughout the country.
