6 FAQs about [Solar-coal hybrid power station]

What is solar hybrid coal-fired power plant?

The solar hybrid coal-fired power plant is different from traditional solar thermal power plant. Firstly, the receiver temperature is lower than 300 °C. Secondly, the feed water absorbs heat in solar receiver without phase change.

Does solar hybrid coal-fired power plant have a levelized cost of electricity?

Economic analysis In previous section, a detailed annual performance analysis of the solar hybrid coal-fired power plant has been performed. Based on these results, the levelized cost of electricity (LCOE) has been determined for all the solar multiples considered.

Is coal-solar hybridisation possible?

It is possible to combine solar power with coal-fired power plants if the solar potential exceeds the turbine’s extra capacity, leading to coal-saving. On current coal-solar hybrid plants, solar steam feeds only the highest-pressure preheater. However, other hybridisation concepts could be adopted and combined to increase the solar share, especially on new projects (Siros and others, 2012).

How to optimize solar hybrid coal-fired power plant?

The three objectives selected for the optimization of the solar hybrid coal-fired power plant are the annual solar-to-electric efficiency, annual solar power output and the levelized cost of electricity. Fig. 9 illustrates the relation of annual solar power output and solar-to-electric efficiency.

Will solar hybrid coal-fired power plant increase LCOE?

For solar hybrid coal-fired power plant, the turbine efficiency would not drop sharply with the aid of the relatively larger capacity units of the coal-fired plant. As the increase of SM, more solar heat would be abandoned, leading to the decrease of solar-to-electric efficiency and the increase of LCOE.

Can solar power be used in a coal-fired power station?

Solar power can be used in a coal-fired power station to increase overall plant efficiency, reduce coal demand and CO2 emissions, and minimize the problem of solar power’s variability.
