In the current context of energy transition, Integrated Solar Combined Cycle (ISCC) power plants are an alternative that able to reduce carbon emissions from combined cycle (CC) plants. addition, coupling storage system based on molten salts benefits hybridization, allowing surplus be stored cover peaks in demand. Because it is a recent technology, determination optimal injection points for solar-generated steam into critical issue. this work, thermodynamic model hybrid natural gas and solar thermal CC plant has been developed using Thermoflex analyze integration effects terms efficiency power. For all candidate positions, ‘power boosting’ ‘fuel saving’ operation modes have simulated, considering conditions compatible with useful range salts. The results show at high-pressure line before turbine increases cycle’s gross respect reference case, estimating reduction 6696 kg/h mode increase 14.4 MW mode. Hence, adapting cycles hybridization viable solution transition period towards more sustainable sources.

This study explores the potential for PV solar power and battery storage to reduce energy costs in a typical Malian single-family household, highlighting significant cost savings improved reliability. The high irradiance throughout year makes viable household needs. However, most electricity is consumed at night due air conditioning, with an annual consumption of 12,504 kWh. Cost models plants systems, including installation, were developed. parameters reviewed using latest literature, distinguishing between current future trends, referred as Case I II, respectively. Additionally, feed-in tariff $0.00 $0.04 per injected kWh into AC mains was considered. return USD on investment considered economic parameters. A small plant peak up 3 kW can achieve ROI 70% 100%. Due reduced prospects, this could increase 90% 130%. such only reach maximum self-sufficiency about 40%, during nights. 4 one-third 57% 82%, costing approximately $1330 $1760.
