The solar energy industry is following the advances of the wind energy industry in Peru, where all stakeholders (communities, authorities, investors, and NGOs, among others) of the territory are accepting this clean energy as a road to reach sustainable development .
Experience has also been acquired in environmental impact assessment (EIA) studies and acquiring socio-environmental licenses for operation. The advances in solar energy in Peru are helping the clean transformation of the energy matrix; however, its application is still in the early stages despite the enormous potential available . 4.1.2.
For example, the hybridization of solar photovoltaic (PV) with concentrated solar power (CSP) facilities ensures energy delivery within a window of up to 10 to 11 h per day, with solar energy storage systems taken as a reference. This is largely controlled by the excellent conditions of the sun source.
