Get PriceIntegrated solar combined cycle (ISCC): This is a GTCC that receives significant thermal energy to the bottoming cycle (or in some schemes the topping cycle) from a solar thermal field. You might find these chapters and articles relevant to this topic. This chapter discusses the integrated solar combined cycle (ISCC).
Wang et al. , Benabdellah & Ghenaiet and Alqahtani & Patino-Echeverri assessed the economic performance of PT solar collector integrated with combined cycle gas turbines (ISCC).
The type of solar integration in a combined cycle plant has been investigated by several authors. Integration can be performed with the topping cycle (similar to solar-Brayton plants), the bottoming cycle (similar to solar-aided coal-fired plant), or both.
The estimated capital cost for 50 MW concentrated solar thermal plant without storage varies between 3000 and 5000 2012$/kWe based on figures from [24, 31, 32, 42]. In this study the capital cost is chosen to be 4000 $/kW which is the actual capital cost of the recent Genesis Solar Energy Project in Blythe, California .
Solar integration in the topping cycle (Fig. 30) is similar to the CSP-Brayton plant, where the gas turbine exhaust is used to generate steam for the bottoming cycle in a heat recovery steam generator (HRSG). Earlier studies on this configuration include SMUD Kokhala , Kribus et al. , Segal and Epstein .
Solar integration in the bottoming cycle (Fig. 33) is similar to solar-aided coal-fired plants. However, instead of using coal, the exhaust of the topping gas turbine is used to generate steam for the bottoming cycle. All ISCC plants (Table 4) currently incorporate solar energy in the bottoming cycle.
