This is the first and probably the only book devoted to
utility-scale solar power - perhaps the fastest-growing sector of
the global energy market. Philip Wolfe's book describes the
development and operation of large-scale solar power stations, and
will interest all those who want to understand how these
multi-million dollar projects are designed, structured, financed,
constructed and maintained. It contains case studies of the
Waldpolenz Energy Park, Germany, Lopburi Solar Plant in Thailand
and the Topaz Solar Farm in California. Also included are
interviews from leading figures in the PV industry. It shows the
state of the world market and links to an online resource that
continues to track the explosive growth of the sector. The book is
arranged in three sections: A description of solar projects in
context, and how they are undertaken. Chapters on developing and
structuring projects; siting, consenting and connection issues;
building and operating solar plants; design and technology basics;
economies of solar photovoltaics. The second section reviews
individual aspects of the project development and operational
process in more detail. In particular it advises on strategies to
manage technology, commercial, regulatory and implementation risks.
These are supported by a comprehensive reference section, including
case studies and overviews of key parameters applicable in
different parts of the world. Supported by figures and photographs,
this book is for anyone wanting to master the commercial,
professional, financial, engineering or political aspects of
developing multi-mega-watt solar PV projects in a mainstream power
market. It is a 'user manual' to accompany a sector which by 2015
had surpassed a value of $100 billion.
