Abstract Concentrated Solar Power (CSP) is an electricity generation technology that
concentrates solar irradiance through heliostats onto a small area, the receiver, where a …

A global transition towards more sustainable production and consumption systems is
underway. This transition processes particularly visible in energy systems, where modern …

In the present paper, a thermodynamic simulation platform has been established for
investigating the thermodynamic and exergoeconomic behavior of six SCO 2 Brayton cycle …

Solar and other renewable energy driven gas-solid thermochemical energy storage (TCES)
technology is a promising solution for the next generation energy storage systems due to its …

In thermal-storage photovoltaic-concentrated solar power (PV-CSP) systems, the fluctuant
part electricity is stored in thermal energy storage (TES) system instead of high-cost …

This study aims to exploit the low-cost generation of photovoltaic (PV) plant and high-
capacity and low-cost thermal energy storage (TES) system of concentrating solar power …

This work analyses a 150 MW e multi-tower solar-only combined cycle power plant (nominal
efficiency∼ 50%) for evening peak operation. Olivine particles are used as heat transfer …

This research presents a novel mathematical framework for optimizing solar combined cycle
power plants, with a particular emphasis on the exergy analysis of various superheating …

The paper presents a solution to the problem of large fluctuations of power demand from a
fossil-fueled steam turbine cycle. The fluctuations are due to the presence of the renewable …

This paper presents a novel power block concept for flexible electricity dispatch in a
Concentrating Solar Power (CSP) plant. The power block is based on intercooled–unfired …
