Solar chimney power plant performance in Iran

Asnaghi, A.; Ladjevardi, S.M. - In: Renewable and Sustainable Energy Reviews 16 (2012) 5, pp. 3383-3390

A solar chimney power plant (SCPP) is proposed to be built as the first national SCPP in central regions of Iran. Studies of DLR MED-CSP project show that Iran can be a part of the Mediterranean solar power generation chain in 2050 to provide electrical power demand of Europe. High direct solar...
