Comparison of Molten Salts and Thermal Oil in Parabolic Trough Power Plants for Different Sites and Different Storage Capacities

This study compares the levelized cost of energy (LCOE) of parabolic trough solar power plants using thermal oil or two different molten salt mixtures located at three different sites and with different thermal storage capacities. The necessity of using appropriate model approaches for the temperatu...
