Image Theses and Dissertations Dynamic Integration of Solar Assisted Carbon Capture with Thermal Energy Storage for Flexibilization of Natural Gas Combined Cycle Power Plant A fast increase in power generation from renewable sources is creating the need for a larger contribution from power generation from other sources. This demands more flexible power generation systems, making energy storage a necessity to integrate flexible power generation with the grid demand. Thermal energy storage is a good option to be integrated with Rankine power cycles. Particularly, sensible heat stored in concrete offers the option for integration with power plants in a flexible and cost competitive way. View Item
