Description

A computer simulation model of the behavior of a photovoltaic (PV) gas turbine hybrid system with compressed air storage is developed in order to evaluate its performance and predict the total energy-conversion efficiency and the incurred costs under various operating conditions. This integrated PV and gas turbine hybrid plant produces approximately 140% more power per unit of energy consumed compared with conventional gas turbine plants. In addition lower rates of pollutant emissions to the atmosphere are achieved.(Author)
