Abstract

The use of solar thermal energy for electricity generation is a clean and sustainable way to cover the increasing energy needs of our society. The most mature technology for capturing solar energy in high temperature levels is the Parabolic Trough Collector. In this study, an Organic Rankine Cycle coupled with Parabolic Trough Collector is analysed for two approaches. First is to develop a hybrid cycle in which the Parabolic Trough Collector field is combined with Traditional Steam Rankine Cycle without storage tank having boiler as a heat exchanger for 25MW power generation at GNFC, Bharuch. And the second approach is to develop an Organic Rankine cycle coupled with Concentrated Solar collector field (Parabolic Trough Collector Field) without storage tank and water is used as a working fluid in both the systems. Economic analysis is also reported to assess the performance and commercial viability of the system.
