Alessandra Ghilardi,Guido Francesco Frate,Andrea Baccioli,Dario Ulivieri,Lorenzo Ferrari,Umberto Desideri,Lorenzo Cosi,Simone Amidei,V. Michelassi +8 more
TL;DR: In this paper , the authors compared several alternative technologies suited to recover gas turbine waste heat, and a detailed cost analysis for each is presented, considering a wide range of application sizes and temperature levels typical for waste heat recovery from GTs gas turbines.
Proceedings ArticleDOI
Perspectives on the Use of Molten Carbonate Fuel Cells with Renewable Energy Sources
TL;DR: In this article, the authors present the state of the art and the perspectives of the use of molten carbonate fuel cells with renewable energy sources and show that the commercial size of MCFC stacks (125 to 250 kW) is the right size for use with such fuels which are generally not available for power plants with output larger than some MW.
Journal ArticleDOI
Thermally integrated pumped thermal energy storage for multi-energy districts: Integrated modelling, assessment and comparison with batteries
TL;DR: In this paper , the performance of multi-energy storage based on the Thermally Integrated Pumped Energy Storage (TIPTES) technology is investigated, and the results showed that mTIPTs perform better than batteries from a thermodynamic point of view, reducing the curtailment of renewables.
Design, Construction, Start-Up and First Experimental Trials of a Test Rig for Single Fuel Cells
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors present a test rig for single cell designed to reach these targets and its first tests on a Molten Carbonate Fuel Cell, which has revealed to be very flexible allowing the characterization of the system at different operating conditions.
