Abstract

In this paper, a simulation of a similar solar power plant as PS10 plant with a modified storage system is presented. The simulation study of this modified plant is conducted for determining the viability of installing this plant in Aswan. The presented study, building, results, and analysis of the model plant are conducted with Simulink® tools in MATLAB® program. The simulation results are presented by the first day of each season during the year. This model will show how system behaviour is affected during solar transients in arid zones taking into account solar variability throughout the day.
