Abstract: Energy comes in different forms. Light is a form of energy. So is heat. So is electricity. Often, one form of energy can be turned into another. This fact is very important because it explains how we get electricity, which we use in so many ways. Electricity is used to light streets and buildings, to run computers and TVs, and to run many other machines and appliances at home, at school, and at work. One way to get electricity is to This method for making electricity is popular. But it has some problems. Our planet has only a limited supply of oil and coal .In this method details about Endless Energy, Solar Cells Galore, Energy from Sun shine , Understanding Electricity. Solar Thermal power plant use the Sun as a heat source. In order to generate a high enough temperature for a power plant, solar energy must be concentrated. In a solar thermal power plant this in normally achieved with mirrors. Estimation for global solar thermal potential indicates that it could more than provide for total global electricity needs. There are three primary solar thermal technologies based on three ways no of concentrating solar energy: solar parabolic through plants, solar tower power plants, and solar dish power plants. The mirrors used in these plants are normally constructed from glass, a although, other techniques are being explored. Power plant of these types use solar heat to heat a thermodynamics fluid such as water in order to drive a thermodynamic engine; for water this will be a stream turbine. Solar thermal power plants can have heat storage systems that allow them to generate electricity beyond daylight hours.

Abstract:
Introduction. An urgent scientific problem is to increase the efficiency of using solar energy in solar power plants (SES). The purpose of the article is to study methods for increasing the efficiency of solar power plants. Materials and Methods. Solar power plants based on modules with a two-sided working surface are considered. Most modern solar power plants use solar modules. The reflection of solar radiation from the earth’s surface provides an increase in the production of electrical energy by 20% compared with modules with a working surface on one side. It is possible to increase the efficiency of using solar energy by increasing the annual production of electric energy through the creation of equal conditions for the use of solar energy by the front and back surfaces of bilateral solar modules. Results. The article presents a solar power plant on a horizontal surface with a vertical arrangement of bilateral solar modules, a solar power station with a deviation of bilateral solar modules from a vertical position, and a solar power plant on the southern slope of the hill with an angle β of the slope to the horizon. The formulas for calculating the sizes of the solar energy reflectors in the meridian direction, the width of the solar energy reflectors, and the angle of inclination of the solar modules to the horizontal surface are given. The results of computer simulation of the parameters of a solar power plant operating in the vicinity of Luxor (Egypt) are presented. Discussion and Conclusion. It is shown that the power generation within the power range of 1 kW takes a peak value for vertically oriented two-sided solar modules with horizontal reflectors of sunlight at the installed capacity utilization factor of 0.45. At the same time, when the solar radiation becomes parallel to the plane of vertical solar modules, there is a decrease in the output of electricity. The proposed design allows equalizing and increasing the output of electricity during the maximum period of solar radiation. Vertically oriented modules are reliable and easy to use while saving space between modules.

Abstract:
<span lang="EN-US">As the world embraces sustainable energy solutions, the accurate prediction of AC power generation in solar power plants becomes imperative for efficient energy management. This research endeavors to address this critical need through a meticulous exploration of five distinctive predictive algorithms: linear regression, gradient boosting, neural networks, support vector regression (SVR), and ensemble techniques. Leveraging a merged dataset comprising environmental parameters like ambient and module temperatures, irradiation, and historical yield, our study embarks on a comprehensive evaluation journey. The essence of this endeavor lies in the recognition that renewable energy sources, particularly solar power, are instrumental in mitigating environmental concerns associated with traditional energy generation. To unleash the full potential of solar power, a nuanced understanding of predictive methodologies is indispensable. Linear regression serves as a cornerstone, validating its foundational role. However, the crux of innovation lies in the advanced algorithms – gradient boosting, neural networks, SVR, and ensemble methods – each striving to optimize prediction accuracy. A novelty of this research stems from its holistic approach to predictive modelling. By meticulously comparing the performance of multiple algorithms, we uncover insights that transcend mere theoretical applications. Our findings assume significance in the context of renewable energy's societal impact.</span>

Abstract:
In addition to wind and photovoltaic power, concentrating solar thermal power (CSP) will make a major contribution to electricity provision from renewable energies. Drawing on almost 30 years of operational experience in the multi-megawatt range, CSP is now a proven technology with a reliable cost and performance record. In conjunction with thermal energy storage, electricity can be provided according to demand. To date, solar thermal power plants with a total capacity of 1.3 GW are in operation worldwide, with an additional 2.3 GW under construction and 31.7 GW in advanced planning stage. Depending on the concentration factors, temperatures up to 1000 ° C can be reached to produce saturated or superheated steam for steam turbine cycles or compressed hot gas for gas turbine cycles. The heat rejected from these thermodynamic cycles can be used for sea water desalination, process heat and centralized provision of chilled water. While electricity generation from CSP plants is still more expensive than from wind turbines or photovoltaic panels, its independence from fluctuations and daily variation of wind speed and solar radiation provides it with a higher value. To become competitive with mid-load electricity from conventional power plants within the next 10–15 years, mass production of components, increased plant size and planning/operating experience will be accompanied by technological innovations. On 30 October 2009, a number of major industrial companies joined forces to establish the so-called DESERTEC Industry Initiative, which aims at providing by 2050 15 per cent of European electricity from renewable energy sources in North Africa, while at the same time securing energy, water, income and employment for this region. Solar thermal power plants are in the heart of this concept.

Abstract:
Parabolic trough solar technology is the most proven and lowest cost large-scale solar power technology available today, primarily because of the nine large commercial-scale solar power plants that are operating in the California Mojave Desert. These plants, developed by Luz International Limited and referred to as Solar Electric Generating Systems (SEGS), range in size from 14–80 MW and represent 354 MW of installed electric generating capacity. More than 2,000,000m2 of parabolic trough collector technology has been operating daily for up to 18 years, and as the year 2001 ended, these plants had accumulated 127 years of operational experience. The Luz collector technology has demonstrated its ability to operate in a commercial power plant environment like no other solar technology in the world. Although no new plants have been built since 1990, significant advancements in collector and plant design have been made possible by the efforts of the SEGS plants operators, the parabolic trough industry, and solar research laboratories around the world. This paper reviews the current state of the art of parabolic trough solar power technology and describes the R&D efforts that are in progress to enhance this technology. The paper also shows how the economics of future parabolic trough solar power plants are expected to improve.

The current investigation provides information about solar updraft tower power plants, SUTPPs (also called solar chimney power plants, SCPPs), which form a unique method of solar-powered electricity production through a ducted wind turbine driven by induced airflow as a result of solar heating. The investigation is conducted using numerical modeling via the system-level simulation tool Aladdin (developed and released freely by the Institute for Future Intelligence, IFI) for solar energy systems, wind energy systems, or the built environment. The Aladdin energy simulator is first evaluated here by comparison with published experimental and numerical results corresponding to the historical 50 kW prototype SUTPP that was successfully tested in Manzanares (Spain) between 1982 and 1989. This prototype has a height of about 195 m for the chimney (the updraft tower) and a radius of about 122 m for the solar heat absorber (the solar air collector or the greenhouse). Next, various climate and performance characteristics are investigated and contrasted for nine different locations around the world with a similar latitude of 24°, which is within the sunbelt, assuming that the same Manzanares SUTPP prototype geometry is employed in these locations. These nine locations are Muscat (Oman), Al Jawf (Libya), Riyadh (Saudi Arabia), Karachi (Pakistan), Ahmedabad (India), Havana (Cuba), Culiacán (Mexico), Dhaka (Bangladesh), and Baise (China). The energy generation intensity (EGI) for the Manzanares-type solar updraft tower power plant in these nine examined locations was between 0.93 kWh/m2 per year (in Baise) and 2.28 kWh/m2 per year (in Muscat). Also, Muscat had the smallest seasonality index (maximum-to-minimum monthly electric output) of 1.90, while Baise had the largest seasonality index of 4.48. It was found that the main limitation of the overall SUTPP energy conversion efficiency is the chimney efficiency (the process of accelerating the air after entering the chimney). This study concludes that solar updraft towers (SUTs) cannot compete with existing mature and modular renewable energy alternatives, particularly photovoltaic (PV) panels, if the aimed use is commercial utility-scale electricity generation. Instead, SUTs may become attractive and achievable if viewed as hybrid-use projects by serving primarily as a large-scale greenhouse area for agricultural applications while secondarily allowing energy harvesting by generating clean (emissions-free) electricity from the incoming solar radiation heat.

Abstract:
The load pressure on electrical power system is increased during last decade. The installation of new power generators (PGs) take huge time and cost. Therefore, to manage current power demands, the solar plants are considered a fruitful solution. However, critical caring and balance output power in solar plants are the highlighted issues. Which needs a proper procedure in order to minimize balance output power and caring issues in solar plants. This paper investigates artificial neural network (ANN) and hybrid boost converter (HBC) based MPPT for improving the output power of solar plants. The proposed model is analyzed in two steps, the offline step and the online step. Where the offline status is used for training various terms of ANNs in terms of structure and algorithm while in the online step, the online procedure is applied with optimum ANN for maximum power point tracking (MPPT) using traditional converter and hybrid converter in solar plants. Moreover, a detail analytical framework is studied for both proposed steps. The mathematical and simulation approaches show that the presented model efficiently regulate the output of solar plants. This technique is applicable for current installed solar plants which reduces the cost per generation.

Abstract:
Purpose The purpose of this paper is to support effective business services provision along the life cycle of complex service-enhanced products, such as the case of solar power plants, and to explore collaborative approaches for multi-stakeholder business services. Design/methodology/approach Design and implementation of adequate collaboration strategies and cloud-based support mechanisms to facilitate creation and management of collaborative networks in this sector. For this purpose, a conceptual framework, a cloud-based platform and a set of collaboration support tools are proposed. Validation is based on a pilot implementation and interactions with a large group of end users. Findings Validation results confirmed the suitability of the collaborative networks approach in this sector, which often involves multiple small and medium size enterprises. Originality/value The interplay between long-term strategic networks and goal-oriented collaborative networks and their interaction with the various phases of the product-services life cycle correspond to a novel approach in this sector, traditionally focused on a sub-contracting model. This opens new opportunities for enhancing the value of complex products through collaborative value-added services. Of particular relevance is also the adoption of collaborative approaches for service co-creation.

Abstract:
In recent years the problem of controlling the temperature of oil leaving an array of parabolic trough collectors has received much attention. The control schemes developed have in general utilized a feedback control loop combined with feedforward compensation. The majority of the published papers place the emphasis almost entirely on the design of the feedback control loop. Little or no attention has been paid to issues involved in the design of the feedforward controller. This paper seeks to redress this imbalance by concentrating upon the design and development of a feedforward controller for the ACUREX distributed solar collector field at the Plataforma Solar de Almeria. Different methods of combining feedback and feedforward will be assessed and experimental results will be presented in order to support any theoretical observations made.

Abstract:
Fundamental differences between the optimization strategies for power cycles used in “traditional” and solar-thermal power plants are identified using principles of finite-time thermodynamics. Optimal operating efficiencies for the power cycles in traditional and solar-thermal power plants are derived. In solar-thermal power plants, the added capital cost of a collector field shifts the optimum power cycle operating point to a higher-cycle efficiency when compared to a traditional plant. A model and method for optimizing the thermoeconomic performance of solar-thermal power plants based on the finite-time analysis is presented. The method is demonstrated by optimizing an existing organic Rankine cycle design for use with solar-thermal input. The net investment ratio (capital cost to net power) is improved by 17%, indicating the presence of opportunities for further optimization in some current solar-thermal designs.

Abstract:
Solar thermal power plants are an alternative for the future energy context, allowing for a progressive decarbonisation of electricity production. One way to improve the performance of such plants is the use of supercritical CO2 power cycles. This article focuses on a solar thermal plant with a central solar receiver coupled to a partial cooling cycle, and it conducts a comparative study from both a thermal and economic perspective with the aim of optimising the configuration of the receiver. The design of the solar receiver is based on a radial configuration, with absorber panels converging on the tower axis; the absorber panels are compact structures through which a pressurised gas circulates. The different configurations analysed keep a constant thermal power provided by the receiver while varying the number of panels and their dimensions. The results demonstrate the existence of an optimal configuration that maximises the exergy efficiency of the solar subsystem, taking into account both the receiver exergy efficiency and the heliostat field optical efficiency. The evolution of electricity generation cost follows a similar trend to that of the exergy efficiency, exhibiting minimum values when this efficiency is at its maximum.

Abstract:
The coastal area is an area that is high in salt content so that it can corrode the tools around it. As with solar panels in Solar Power Plants if installed in coastal areas, their performance will likely decrease. Although Solar Power Plants is a renewable energy that is obtained free of charge from sunlight, the solar panel attached to Solar Power Plants is also a tool or instrument which functions to create electric power. The hypothesis that has been made is that solar panels have a decreased performance when in coastal areas compared to solar panels installed in urban areas. In this study, a comparison or analysis of the performance of solar panels in coastal areas with urban areas will be discussed. Therefore, from this analysis, it is hoped that it can draw a conclusion that there is special or extra care when installing Solar Power Plants in coastal areas.
