As the environmental problems caused by the use of conventional fuels have risen significantly and due to the increase in fossil fuel prices, the importance of reducing society dependence on non-renewable energy sources becomes more and more urgent. It is clear that this could only happen by switching to extensive use of clean energy sources such as renewable energy sources. In this paper a technical feasibility and economic viability study of a dish/Stirling solar power plant in Greece is presented. The proposed power plant uses Dish/Stirling technology and has nominal power 10 MW. The proposed solar concentrator system consists of a primary mirror, formed by elastic film, used to focus the sun's rays onto a secondary mirror which then deviates this radiation into the receiver (Stirling engine). TRNSYS program was developed to simulate Dish/Stirling power plant operation in order to investigate its performance in Greece. The simulation predicted that the proposed power plant could produce 11.19 GWh annually. Project investment cost is approximately 27,000,000 €, while payback is achieved after 16 years of operation. The total profit at the end of the analysis period of 25 years is estimated to be 25,500,000 €.
