A solar total energy system is used at a knitwear manufacturing facility to supply electric power to a utility grid and process steam and air conditioning to the facility. The system is a fully cascaded total energy system with parabolic dish solar collectors and steam Rankine cycle power conversion system capable of supplying 100 to 400 kW output with process steam extraction. A detailed chronological record of activities at the facility is presented. Progress is reported in the areas of site preparation and construction support, meteorology, and information dissemination/technology transfer. Cost summaries and future plans are also given. (LEW)
