Advantages of Engine Solar Hybrid Power PlantsSave Fuel: A hybrid saves fuel when solar is generating powerReduce Costs: The cost of electricity is lower when the value of the fuel saved is greater than the solar costsMaintain Reliability: Due to the engines a hybrid maintains reliability producing as much electricity as needed also when the sun doesnt shineHighly Scalable: Both engines and solar PV are scalable to needed capacityFlexibility: Engines can flexibly generate according to shifting demand Solar curtailment or energy storage are other potential sources of flexibility5 Wrtsil 16 February 2016 Wrtsil / Power Plants

Highly Scalable
FlexibilityA Hybrid brings together the best of both worlds
Hybrid Model Daily Energy Generation exampleFlat loadVarying loadEnergy generation split by technology 6 Wrtsil 16 February 2016 Wrtsil / Power PlantsPV can be scaled up to ~70% of loadPV operates as a secondary power sourcePV does not replace engines, it is a means of fuel savings and is commercially viable due to operational fuel savings alone
Example of engine utilization7 Wrtsil 16 February 2016 Wrtsil / Power PlantsEngines flexibly generate remainder of load demand (after solar)
Engine Generation Solar Generation
The operational flexibility of Smart Power Generation enables load following and in hybrid power plants Solar as negative load , increases flexibilityAs Engine output nears minimum partial load, solar output is reducedTemporary reduction protects generator from damage and ensures efficient operation
Integration of Control-Solar as negative load improves flexibility8 Wrtsil 16 February 2016 Wrtsil / Power Plants

Kuwait Hybrid Case study and broad conclusions9 Wrtsil 16 February 2016 Wrtsil / Power Plants
First Solar, Inc.A case study of 55 MW Wrtsil engines + 40 MWac PV solar
Engine-Solar Hybrid financial model11 Wrtsil 16 February 2016 Wrtsil / Power Plants A model that integrates cost of both Wrtsil plant and PV plant: Separate costs for comparison and Integrated hybrid case where cost synergies are taken into account PV and Genset generation are combined Engines load and heat rate depends on solar generation Different scenarios can be modeled for example 100% Genset or Genset + PV The scenarios are used to calculate fuel savings for the hybrid solution, and comparing LCOE Sensitivity analysis shows the fuel price (cost) at which the hybrid reaches break evenWrtsil has conducted an electricity cost evaluation for a hybrid power plant in Kuwait. The plant is evaluated on the basis of: 6 x Wrtsil 20V32TS (54 MW) running on HFO 40 MW (ac) Photovoltaic solar capacity Wrtsil has used its in-house tools and expertise in evaluating the options A realistic load profile with peak demand of 54 MW has been used Issues related to taxes, duties, insurance costs, various soft costs etc. are for the purpose of this comparison left outFinancial modelStudy assumptions for Kuwait example
Doc.ID:Revision:Status:28 / WrtsilLoad profile and running profiles12 Wrtsil 16 February 2016 Wrtsil / Power PlantsAverage Output/ month Average daily load curve example July In this study we have assumed a daily load curve where the Wrtsil engines generate the difference to the total demand. The load curve has been scaled with monthly output data to give a daily load curve for each month With this running profile and load curve (demand) the average plant load for the Wrtsil plant is 41% and the efficiency is 42% (Heat rate: 8650 kJ/kWh)
Source data on solar from First Solar
ResultsWith these assumptions Levelized cost of electricity (excl. Fuel) is 66.57 USD/MWh or $cents 6.7/kWhDepending of fuel price LCOE is:13 Wrtsil 16 February 2016 Wrtsil / Power PlantsBreak even is achievedSource data on solar from First Solar
Benefits of Wrtsil Engine- Solar Hybrid
Affordable, Reliable & Sustainable system
(1) Reduction in LCOE depending on the current international fuel market priceSolar PV14 Wrtsil 16 February 2016 Wrtsil / Power Plants
Fuel Savings (saves fuel cost and mitigates fuel price volatility risk)Drop in Levelized Cost of Energy (LCOE) (1)Higher system efficiency Optimize operations of overall fleetFlexibility: Hybrid power plants can offer a higher degree of flexibility/ dispatchabilityHealthy Return on equity for the plant investor Environmental benefits- towards Greener power
Smart Power Generation Best complement for hybrids

Further information on solar technologies16 Wrtsil 16 February 2016 Wrtsil / Power Plants First Solar, Inc.
Solar technologies: PV and CSPCSP systems use lenses or mirrors and tracking systems to concentrate solar radiation into a small beamThe concentrated heat is then used as a heat source for a conventional powerplant through a working fluid (for example molten salt, oil etc.) and a steam turbineThere are different technologies within CSP: Parabolic trough, Linear fresnel reflector, Stirling dish, and Solar power tower
CSP in a hybrid would make sense with a combined cycle plant with a steam turbine. Wrtsil also has Flexicycle (combined cycle) plants17 Wrtsil 16 February 2016 Wrtsil / Power PlantsPhotovoltaicsConcentrated solar powerPhotovoltaics converts light into electric current using the photovoltaic effect (electrons present in the valence band absorb energy and jump to the conduction band creating direct current)Direct current (dc) is then converted to desired voltage and to alternating current (ac) by invertersPV can use wafer based crystalline silicon cells or thin film cells (can be based on different materials e.g. cadmium telluride, silicon...)
PV can work flexibly in a hybrid with Wrtsil engines running on any fuel

Land use is approx. 140 W/m (peak power) meaning that 1 MW requires ~7 200 mLand use is comparable to PVO&M generally higher than for PVO&M depends on supplier and scope: e.g. 4-25 USD/kWdc/year
Electricity storage less efficient than thermalA hybrid can give dispatchability to PVEnergy price of PV is generally less than for CSPPV can be built in shorter time at lower cost
CSP has inherent heat storageCSP allows for dispatchabilityThermal energy storage more efficient than electricity storageEnergy price more expensiveLonger construction timeHigher use of land and waterRequires large projects
Solar is decreasing in priceDiesel prices remain highly volatile and have steadily increasedSource: First Solar (US Energy Information Administration, DOE, Lawrence Berkley National Laboratory)

Photovoltaic solar system prices have reduced by over 50% in the last few yearsFirst Solar can deliver solar energy that is cost competitive with a wide range of conventional energy sources, including all liquid fuel generationFuel prices remain highly volatile and have steadily increased (Click) Our hybrid system solutions are designed to:Capitalize on the value of solarHedge against rising fuel costsReduce operational expensesMaintain reliable operations
