Abstract
This article presents the results of an investigation concerning the application of two configurations of the Dish Stirling system (prototype, mature) in order to use it as stand alone systems under the Algerian climate for three different sites (Algiers, Bechar, and Tamanrasset). Furthermore, this article presents the social and environmental impacts of using this technology. An analysis of the daily performances, monthly performances, and annual performances for the three sites has been presented. In addition, an economic assessment of these systems has been performed. The results show that both Tamanrasset and Bechar are more suitable than the Algiers site for the implementation of the Dish Stirling systems.
