Strangely the day when Mark Z Jabson took note of the simulation of his plan for France (cf porfolio), Part of CSP plants grew from 0,8% to 11,3% of the electricity production such as in Spain or ...in Ethiopia. Indeed those plants store heat and produce electricity on demand. Jacobson has admited his failure.
Before october the 15th:
After october the 15th :
Insane :
– On demad electricity is still too scarce ;
– 80 GW are required for 15 days, but usual Jacobson CSP plants in US store for 14 hours and would have a total capacity of 20 GW.
– CSP is already so expensive in deserts that it would be a foly to build it in France.
– Given the solar power in winter , it would have been judicious not to install the mirrors and to keep the thermic storage to store the excess of windpowers but Jacobson’s motto is without storage.
– kWh cost woud be four times that of which comes out a new lead nuclear reactor. The overcost of CSP would be 35 billions euros a year, 1,75% of GDP !
– France is not a desert !
– Jacobson can’t trick once more with Germany, Poland and United-Kingdom, for wich 99% electricity comes out fluctuating energy sources !
It is worse than in France, so Jacobson is wrong for all non mediterranean Europe
