Techno-Economic Evaluation of CSP–PV Hybrid Plants with Heat Pump in a Temperature Booster Configuration

Concentrated solar power (CSP)—photovoltaic (PV) hybrid power plants allow for the generation of cheap electrical energy with a high capacity factor (CF). A deep integration of both technologies offers synergies, using parts of the PV generated electricity for heating the thermal storage tank of the...
