- W82349498 abstract "Intermittency represents the essential difference between an energy flux resource such as solar energy, whose incidence is beyond the user's control, and the stored energy resource of fuels. The stochastic or random character of solar variability accounts for much of the uncertainty, even controversy, about utilization and cost of the sun's energy. Present assessments of the solar resource account for intermittency only in its effect upon average value of incidence at a given location. Other research has emphasized enlarging the network of sites at which solar data are available and increasing the size and accuracy of the data base; however, there is still a gap between available data and the data requirements of users, especially for systems involving storage. This paper discusses the concept of an ideal system as a device for determining the usable solar resource. The ideal system is defined in terms of a loss-free collector area and storage capacity per unit of system demand. The portion of incident energy (termed ''recoverable resource'') delivered by the ideal system represents an upper bound on the performance of any corresponding real system at the same location. The recoverable resource is shown to vary consistently with ideal system size in manymore » diverse locations; implications for collecting solar resource data are discussed. Distributions of frequency, duration, and severity of resource deficiencies are illustrated; rare but lengthy shortfall occurrences comprise a surprisingly large portion of total resource shortfall. Total costs of using solar energy include possible costs of having reduced energy supply during worst-case solar deficiencies as well as capital and fuel costs. Lower limits to these costs can be assessed easily using the ideal system and recoverable resource concepts.« less" @default.
