In turn, the study aims to optimize different parameters of the CSP plant. " Enerstar will review the design of the María Elena Power Plant project. February 13, 2015 The company is studying hybridizing the María Elena Solar Thermal Power Plant with another renewable technology such as solar photovoltaic. The marked and continuous decrease in installation costs that photovoltaic solar technology has experienced in recent years, and the uncertainties not yet cleared in the supply of natural gas in Chile, have led the company to rethink the configuration of the Enerstar Power Plant. Maria Elena. In this way, Enerstar has launched a new conceptual engineering study that will study the technical-economic feasibility of a plant model that uses solar radiation as a primary energy source, combining a thermoelectric solar plant (CSP) of approximately 70 MW of power, with a photovoltaic park (PV) of similar power. In turn, the study aims to optimize different parameters of the CSP plant in order to improve the overall performance of the plant. This requires Work with higher temperatures Use a biodegradable fluid, such as nitrate salts, to replace thermal oil Achieve greater modularity Save on water consumption Optimize the thermal storage system Increase the number of hours of operation Minimize scheduled and unscheduled start and stop times Reduce O&M costs without losing reliability and reliability Provide heat for mining sites located nearby, thereby improving the overall energy performance of the facility. The CEME1 Solar Plant project enters the Environmental Impact Assessment System 14 december 2015 The company CEME1 SpA, a Joint Venture between Enerstar América and a group of Chilean private investors, has entered the "CEME1 Solar Plant" project in the Environmental Assessment Service of the Antofagasta Region The Strategic Territorial Study of the ISCC Enerstar María Elena Power Plant concludes with favorable results April 10, 2014 The study has included a broader sector than that strictly occupied by the power plant, defined by Route No. 5 North and the NorAndino gas pipeline to the east, the Crucero and Encuentro substations to the northeast, and Route No. 24 to the north, Route B-180 to the west and access to Coya Sur from the South Inauguration of the Villena Solar Thermoelectric Plant February 13, 2014 The Honorable Molt Mr. President of the Generalitat Valenciana, Mr. Alberto Fabra Part, inaugurated yesterday, Wednesday February 12, 2014 the Villena Solar Thermoelectric Power Plant.
