Abstract

I suggest the following abstract: In Turkmenistan, the solar energy is a priority among all renewable sources since the duration of sunny days in the country is from 270 to 320 days a year. The article considers the possibilities of creating a solar power plant based on a tower-type layout. The modes of the optical system in the natural and climatic conditions of Turkmenistan are calculated using a mathematical model, the coefficient of efficiency of using the mirror surface of the installation and the distribution of the level of instantaneous local values are determined. The results of the study show that the maximum increase in the energy efficiency coefficient can be achieved with the location of solar panels perpendicular to solar radiation with the dense placement of heliostats on the north side of the tower, then energy efficiency will increase by 25-40% in summer and 10-15% in winter.
