Objective
ANDASOL's main objective is the implementation of a privately owned and financed 50 MWe solar thermal power plant that will produce annually 181.7 GWhe of clean, emission-free solar electricity in Southern Spain. ANDASOL will demonstrate for the first time on a utility-scale two major innovative advancements of solar thermal technology: The EUROTrough technology and a 9hour thermal storage system. By this, the ANDASOL plant will be worldwide the first solar plant of such size that can provide firm and dispatchable solar electricity at night and during cloud periods.
