Solar Trough Power Generation System

4 FAQs about [Solar Trough Power Generation System]

What is solar energy generating systems (SEGS)?

Solar Energy Generating Systems (SEGS) is the name of the world’s largest parabolic trough solar thermal electricity generation system, developed by Luz in southern California, USA. SEGS is the second largest solar thermal power plant in the world at 354 MW (surpassed by the 377MW Ivanpah Solar Power Tower system discussed in the next section).

What is the Solana parabolic trough project?

The 250-megawatt Solana parabolic trough plant near Gila Bend, Arizona uses thermal storage technologies, and provides clean, reliable power to more than 97,000 Arizona Public Service customers. Developed by Abengoa Solar, the project created 1,700 construction jobs and was placed in service October 2013.

How many troughs are in a solar collector field?

A typical solar collector field contains hundreds of parallel rows of troughs connected as a series of loops, which are placed on a north-south axis so the troughs can track the sun from east to west. Individual collector modules are typically 15-20 feet tall and 300-450 feet long.

How does a CSP trough system work?

The thermal energy concentrated in a CSP plant can be stored and used to produce electricity when it is needed, day or night. Today, roughly 1,815 megawatts (MW ac) of CSP plants are in operation in the United States. Parabolic trough systems use curved mirrors to focus the sun’s energy onto a receiver tube that runs down the center of a trough.
