Technical FAQs 4

Can solar energy drive crude oil refineries?

Employing solar energy to drive crude oil refineries is one of the investigated pathways for using renewable energy sources to support lowering the carbon emissions and environmental impact of operating the processing of fossil-based fuels.

Can solar energy systems decarbonize oil refineries?

Other studies in the literature considered coupling solar energy systems to oil refineries to decarbonize their operation. The applicability and feasibility of introducing a concentrated solar power (CSP) system to reduce partial reliance on process heaters of a crude oil refinery was studied by Danish et al. .

How much energy does a 20 kW solar system save?

A 20 kW system in Texas powers pumps, saving $50,000 yearly. In Saudi Arabia, a 10 kW system supports sensors along a 500-mile pipeline. Dust and heat are mitigated with self-cleaning coatings and robust designs. Siemens Solar’s oil and gas solutions redefine energy use.

Can a solar heliostat field support a crude oil refinery decarbonization?

A hybrid energy system is proposed and analyzed thermodynamically with a solar heliostat field, tower, and receiver integrated to support the decarbonization of a crude oil refinery for the city of Yanbu, Saudi Arabia, as a case study. The solar plant was optimized, and the contour plot for the heliostat field is simulated.
