Solar Fuel for a Clean Planet

Who is Solel?  A technology company, providing a one-stop solution for utility scale solar fields  The only commercially proven electricity-producing solar thermal technology  350+ employees – largest solar thermal company. Many engineers involved in building original SEGS  Ongoing major investments in R&D and production capacity  Over $450 million in backlog in 2008

What is Solar Thermal Power?  Free and secure resource, widely available and highly predictable  Uses reflectors to concentrate sun’s energy and create heat  Uniquely suited for answering peak demands % of power generated vs. capacity Load Wind * Solar **

92% CSP Technology Comparison – Parabolic Trough the Dominant Technology 5 – 25 KW (per dish)10 – 64 (MW)50 – 600 (MW) Size Scale Dish focuses sunlight to single point, where thermal collector captures the heat. Engine converts heat into mechanical energy which drives generator to produce electricity. Circular array of mirrors concentrate s sunlight on receiver placed at top of central tower. Heat creates steam to power generator. Curved trough reflects solar radiation onto tube and heats the oil inside it. A heat exchanger creates steam which runs a steam turbine.
