Abstract
The growing demand for energy coupled with the expressive use of fossil fuels, and energy matrices centered on specific resources, are challenges to be faced by this sector in the world. Linked to these challenges is the prospect that fossil fuels are depleting at an ever-increasing rate. It is estimated that these fuels are scarce in a few decades, since the rate of consumption is higher than the rate of production. Currently, Ifes Campus São Mateus does not have any technology implanted to generate energy through alternative sources, so all its consumption is through the concessionaire. One of the challenges of this study is to evaluate the technical and economic feasibility of a heliothermic energy generation route with parabolic trough concentrators in conjunction with the thermal storage system running for ten hours.
