1Study Project TRANS-CSP Trans-Mediterranean
Interconnection for Concentrating Solar Power
(WP02 Scenario) Project for the Research
Development Programme of the German Federal
Ministry for the Environment, Nature Conservation
and Nuclear Safety (BMU)
2WP02 Scenario Scope Develop a sustainable
scenario for power generation in Europe taking
into consideration the transfer of solar
electricity from MENA Result A well balanced
mix of renewables with fossil fuel backup can
provide low cost, secure and compatible
electricity for Europe. Solar electricity imports
can significantly reduce the electricity cost.

10Parameters for Electricity Cost Calculation in
the Scenario
11Specific Investment of Power Technologies
(Example Spain)
Nuclear power increasing cost of waste disposal
and security
12Electricity Cost of Power Technologies (Example
Spain)
CO2 Capture and Sequestration (CCS) included in
fossil fueled generation costs after 2020 CSP in
solar only operation
