TL;DR: In this paper, a renewable solution based on woodchip combustion system coupled with ORC for applications replacing biomass boilers and producing electricity for own system consumption and a little bit extra is presented.

TL;DR: Carnot batteries are a quickly developing group of technologies for medium and long duration electricity storage as discussed by the authors , which is associated mostly with the increasing penetration of intermittent cheap renewables in power grids and the requirement of electricity storage in unprecedented capacities.

TL;DR: Focusing to further accelerate and cheapen the customized micro-turbogenerators for low temperature applications, this work provides an outlook of possibilities of additive manufacturing methods like 3D printing of turbine nozzles and rotors that provide potential to improve the competiveness of small-scale ORC.

TL;DR: In this article, the authors provide an insight into the early commercial development and pilot operation of a 50kW thermal and 2kW electrical output biomass-fired microcogeneration (μCHP) ORC unit.

TL;DR: A review of 3D printing technologies with respect to applications in turbomachinery field can be found in this paper, where the authors describe possible practical applications concerning multiple situations as research and development, customization of end-product, operative field-testing, or temporary replacements.
