ECONOMIC ASSESSMENT OF INSTALLING PUMPED STORAGE HYDROELECTRIC POWER PLANT IN EGYPT
Diaa Abdellatif Abdelaziz Ghazala;
Abstract
Key Words :
Pumped Storage – Electricitygeneration – levelizedcost of electricity – traditional power plants – Fossil Fuel)
Summary :
This thesis studied all the economic aspects relating to constructing Pumped Storage Hydroelectric Power Plant (PSHPP) in Egypt to be compared with traditional generation technologies based on levelized cost of electricity (LCOE) to conduct the conditions at which PSHPP has a competitiveness over traditional generation technologies. This thesis studied how interconnecting PSHPP to the Egyptian Unified Grid has an impact on the fuel costs in the grid. The avoided fuel amounts based on opportunity cost concept resulting from utilizing PSHPP instead of fossil fuel power plants were also studied.
