This portion of the Crosbyton Solar Power Project (CSPP) has four objectives: (1) to provide a brief overview for the design, components and estimated energy performance of the baseline 60/sup 0/ rim solar bowl technology or FMDF; (2) to explain the basis for the cost estimates of the baseline 60/sup 0/ bowl and the alternate shallow bowl design, and to examine potential sensitivities in cost due to economies of scale and learning curve effects; (3) to provide life cycle cost simulations using the baseline and shallow bowl design and costs and annual performance estimates under a standardized set of model assumptions; and (4) to suggest potential applications of the CSPP concept in repowering, chemicals, fuel alcohol or malt beverages and integrated agriculture.
