This project links directly to the DOE Energy Efficiency and Renewable Energy (EERE) and Solar Program missions to “bring clean, reliable, and affordable energy technologies to the marketplace” and to “increase the viability and deployment of renewable energy technologies.” Cost reductions due to learning and deployment, the primary outcome of this project, directly support the Solar Program’s long-term goal of • achieving wholesale, central power generation from solar energy at costs of $0.05–$0.08/kWhr. 2. Technical Approach The report on the potential of 1000 MW of CSP power in the West was completed and submitted to Congress in August of 2002. During the preparation of this report, DOE formed the 1000MW Team with the purpose of educating energy offices and professionals on the potential of CSP power in the Southwestern states. This “road show” sought to provide information on the characteristics of CSP technologies, the potential in each of the states, and the benefits that would accrue from its implementation. In April of 2004 at the North American Energy Summit in Albuquerque, New Mexico, the Western Governors’ Association resolved to evaluate diversification of Western energy resources. The mechanism for doing this is the 30 GW Clean Energy Initiative for the West, which includes a declaration to “establish a stakeholder working group to develop options for consideration by the governors in furtherance of the 1,000 MW Initiative.” The April 2004 resolution rolled up the 1000 MW Initiative under the umbrella of the 30GW WGA Study. In FY 2005, we have continued to support the Southwestern states and the WGA analysis efforts, through a combination of in-house and subcontracted technical, policy, and market analyses. Budget allocations by task are provided below. performance/costs of CSP systems. • Provided an assessment of the technical potential and economically feasible CSP capacity in the Western states. (Developed “supply curves” for further analysis by quantitative working groups.) • Developed resource maps (NREL Resource Assessment Group) identifying the most suitable locations for CSP installations. The CSP plant map shown in Fig. 1 below was prepared to show some of the best locations for CSP in the Southwest. • Evaluated market barriers and analyzed potential policies to overcome barriers. The primary market barrier is the gap between the cost of CSP power generation and that of fossil generation. • Served as a technical resource for the solar task force, including participating in meetings of this task force. Staff from NREL (Mark Mehos) and SNL (Tom Mancini) participated as members of the WGA Solar Task Force. Fig. 1. Locations for CSP plants in the Southwest 3.2 Support of the NM CSP Task Force In 2004, Governor Richardson formed a Concentrating Solar Power Task Force to identify a viable commercial CSP project of 50 MW (or larger) for the State of New Mexico. The CSP Task Force was chaired by the Cabinet Secretary of the New Mexico Energy, Minerals and Natural Resources Department and included members Solar Thermal R&D Concentrating Solar Power 2) Support to the State of New Mexico’s Concentrating Solar Power Task Force 3) Development of a report defining the economic, energy, and environmental benefits of Concentrating Solar Power in California. 3.1 Support of the WGA 30 GW Clean Energy Initiative Performed analysis of the current and future Task Title 1000 MW Initiative Support - NREL General Systems Analysis - NREL 1000 MW Initiative Support - SNL 3.
