Summary

Assesses whether solar chimney power plants could supply small Mediterranean settlements and islands, using a simplified power-output model applied to two Croatian coastal sites. A 550 m tower would deliver roughly 5–6 GWh per year, but cost estimates show its levelized electricity price would be well above that of other power sources.
