Development of Hydrogen Mitigation for the Nevada Solar One Power Plant

  • Gregory Glatzmaier

Research output: NLRTechnical Report

Abstract

Acciona Solar Power and NREL agreed to a collaborative effort (CRADA) to develop and implement a method to reduce hydrogen levels in the circulating HTF at the NSO power plant. The project was planned as a three-year effort, and work started in June 2015. The CRADA's goal was to solve the long-standing lost efficiency problem caused by the buildup of hydrogen in the HTF, which significantly impacts the efficiency, electricity generation, and revenue from parabolic trough power plants.
