Abstract
Hybridization of solar energy together with another
energy source is an option to provide heat and power
reliably on demand. Hybridization allows decreasing
combustion related fuel consumption and emissions,
assuring stable grid connection and cutting costs of
concentrated solar power technology due to shared power
production equipment. The research project "Integration
of Concentrated Solar Power (CSP) and Circulating
Fluidized Bed (CFB) Power Plants" (COMBO-CFB) has been
carried out to investigate the technical possibilities
and limitations of the concept. The main focus was on the
effect of CSP integration on combustion dynamics and on
the joint power cycle, and on the interactions of
subsystems. The research provides new valuable
experimental data and knowhow about dynamic behaviour of
CFB combustion under boundary conditions of the hybrid
system. Limiting factors for maximum solar share in
different hybridization schemes and suggestions for
enhancing the performance of the hybrid system are
derived.
