ASSESSMENT AND POTENTIAL USE OF CONCENTRATING SOLAR POWER PLANTS IN SERBIA AND REPUBLIC OF SRPSKA

ABSTRACT
Data assessment and potential use of concentrating solar power (CSP) plants in Serbia and the Republic of Srpska are given in the paper. Besides, CSP plants schematics and manner of their functioning are described. Then follows geographical position and the results of PVGIS calculation of the yearly average values of the solar irradiation on horizontal, vertical and optimally inclined plane, optimal inclination, linke turbidity, ratio of diffuse to global solar irradiation, average daytime temperature and 24 hours average of temperature for some locations in Europe where CSP plants are installed or are in construction, and in some cities in Serbia and the Republic of Srpska. The paper also gives comparative surveys of the solar irradiation on horizontal plane and ratio of diffuse to global solar irradiation on some locations in Europe with installed and CSP plants in construction, and in some cities in Serbia and the Republic of Srpska. Data for Direct Normal Irradiance (DNI) for locations in Europe with installed or CSP plants under construction, and for some other cities in Serbia and the Republic of Srpska are also given. Data for DNI were obtained by means of SWERA. In the light of the obtained results it was concluded that Serbia and the Republic of Srpska have favorable climatic and geographical conditions for the installation of the experimental CSP plants, and the area of Trebinje in the Republic of Srpska has favorable conditions for commercial CSP plants installation.
