Conference paper (peer-reviewed)abstract This work presents a dispatch optimizer algorithm that seeks to maximize the revenues of a CSP plant by selling electricity to the grid for a case study in Chile.

Results indicate that it is possible to determine best configurations for CSP plants in terms of solar field size and thermal storage under given electric prices conditions that result in better trade-offs between investment and profits of the plant. In this way, this work also demonstrates the importance of coupling optimized dispatch strategies with financial models, suggesting also that CSP developers could implement these type of optimizers with price forecasting models to evaluate the profitability and viability of their business models.
