Abstract
This report describes results of an effort to study the impact of solar radiation resources and enhance the use of solar radiation data for siting solar thermal power plants. This was a follow-on to an initial development of a siting methodology by the same authors. The work was done on a limited budget and does not constitute an actual power plant siting. Rather, these results demonstrate a methodology that incorporates various means for improving solar resource information and its use in identifying the best locations for power plants. These reports represent the first step in a technology transfer process that may lead to industrial applications of the methods described. The solar radiation characteristics must be analyzed further before accurate site selections and system designs can be made. 11 refs., 47 figs., 10 tabs.
