HYBRID PV/CSP SYSTEMS:

Challenging issues to face by 2050

• meet worldwide energy demand (+50% expected increase)
• reduce ghg emissions by 80%
• Hold global warming below 2º C
• transition to low carbon economies by diversifying the world energy mix

WORLD RENE-
WABLES MIX IN 2018

GLOBAL HORIZONTAL IRRADIATION

DEVELOPING COUNTRIES ALONG THE EQUATOR

• MORE THAN 300 DAYS A YEAR OF SUNLIGHT
• SCATTERED COMMUNITIES
• LIMITED GRID ACCESS
• HUGE ENERGY REQUIREMENTS FOR SOCIAL AND ECONOMIC DEVELOPMENT

CURRENT TREND

• CARBON AND OIL STILL DOMINATE THE ENERGY MARKET
• VERY SLOW TRANSITION INTO RENEWABLE SOURCES
• LACK OF INVESTMENT IN R+D
• NOT ENOUGH FUNDING FOR RENEWABLE ENERGY PROJECTS

OBJECTIVES

• research PV and csp state-of-the-art technologies.
• ANALYZE TECHNICAL AND ECONOMIC FEATURES FOR DECISION MAKING CONCERNING THE DEPLOYMENT OF HYBRID PV-CSP SYSTEMS IN DEVELOPING COUNTRIES.
• DEMONSTRATE THE USE OF THIS FRAMEWORK FOR AN innovation ANALYSIS

METHODOLOGY

• BACKGROUND RESEARCH AND LITERATURE REVIEW FOLLOWED BY THE CHOICE OF SOLAR TECHNOLOGIES ANALYZED IN THIS DISSERTATION.
• THE TECHNO-ECONOMIC PROCESS FOLLOWED FOR THE ANALYSIS OF EACH COUNTRY CONSIDERED IN THIS PROJECT.
• ANALYSIS OF A CASE STUDY IN CHILE

BUSINESS RECOMMENDATIONS

• INCREASE AWARENESS AMONG POTENTIAL USERS
• INVESTMENT IN OPTIMIZATION OF OFF-GRID HYBRID SYSTEMS TO ACCELERATE DEPLOYMENT
• DEVELOP A FUNDING SCHEME TO MAKE PAYBACK PERIODS MORE ATTRACTIVE

CONCLUSIONS

• hybrid systems have several advantages over stand alone pv or csp
• OFF-GRID small scale hybrid still faces technical challenges
• the competitiveness of these systems make them seem as a favorable candidate for providing dispatchable clean energy
