Abstract: The recent ratification of the Paris Climate Change Agreement has significant implications for Australia given its emissions intensive economy. It is likely that the electricity sector will need to decarbonize for Australia to meet medium- and long-term emissions reduction targets. This paper explored the potential role of Concentrating Solar Thermal (CST) in a 100% renewable National Electricity Market (NEM) system under different scenarios of CST configuration and subjected the results to sensitivity analysis.
