Published at Applied Thermal Engineering – Optimal operation of an integrated energy system for a concentrated solar power plant based on a supercritical CO2 plume heat pump

Abstract: With the increasing application of Integrated Energy Systems (IES), more effective utilization of renewable energy and diversification of energy utilization forms have become urgent issues to address. IES faces challenges in the co-optimization of deep carbon reduction and multi-energy complementarity. This paper proposes a Carbon-Sequestration Geothermal-Integrated Solar Energy System (SGIES) that integrates Concentrated Solar …
