アベンゴア Abengoa、メキシコ Agua Prieta に12MWの太陽熱発電所(CSP)を含むガス火力発電の複合発電 ISCC 建設へ

　スペインのアベンゴア Abengoa社は、メキシコのアグアプリエタ Agua Prieta に、12MWのパラボラ型トラフ式太陽熱発電所(CSP)を建設する計画をメキシコ政府と合意、22ヶ月の工期により2013年の完成を目指すと発表しました。さらに第二段階の計画として、アベンゴア Abengoa社は、ガス火力発電所を建設し、合計464.4MWの太陽熱&ガス火力の複合発電施設を建設するということです。

　太陽熱&ガス火力発電の複合発電は、Integrated Solar Combined Cycle (ISCC)と呼ばれ、パラボラ型トラフ式太陽熱発電所以外にもタワー式太陽熱発電と組み合わせることも可能だということです。アベンゴア Abengoa社の太陽熱とガス火力発電の複合発電 ISCC 発電は、これまでにモロッコ(470MW ISCC)とアルジェリア(150 MW　ISCC)で実績があり、今回のメキシコで三番目となります。

プレスリリース / Abengoa,June 9, 2011
・Abengoa to develop concentrated solar power (CSP) plant in Agua Prieta, Mexico

" ・This will be the first hybrid solar-gas plant in Mexico, integrated with a combined cycle plant.

Abengoa, the international company that develops innovative technology solutions for sustainable development in the energy and environment sectors, is to develop the new solar field of the Agua Prieta II plant located in the town of Agua Prieta, in the state of Sonora, Mexico.

The project, the first in Mexico, has been promoted by the Mexican Federal Electricity Commission (CFE) and supported by the Global Environment Facility (GEF) of the United Nations’ Development Program. It is expected to come into operation within approximately 22 months.

Abengoa will carry out the engineering, design and start-up of the innovative solar-gas hybrid technology in the new Agua Prieta II concentrated solar power (CSP) plant, comprised of a 12 MW solar field of parabolic trough collectors.

The second phase of the project will be completed with a combined cycle plant capable of producing up to 464.4 MW of power, which will comprise two gas turbines, one steam turbine, a heat exchanger; cooling, condensing and power systems; and auxiliary equipment and systems.

The Agua Prieta II CSP plant is the first hybrid solar-gas plant in Mexico and the third that Abengoa has undertaken in the world. The first two, located in Morocco (470 MW) and Algeria (150 MW), are already in service and are the first and the largest plants to use Integrated Solar Combined Cycle (ISCC) technology.

This new project consolidates Abengoa’s position in developing efficient technologies in the environment and energy sectors, and as a leader in the design and management of CSP plants in Mexico, where the firm has been implementing innovative and sustainable solutions since 1979.
