Flexible Fossil Power Plants for the Future Energy Market through new and advanced Turbine Technologies (FLEXTURBINE)

Start date: Jan 1, 2016, End date: Dec 31, 2018,

The share of renewable energy is growing rapidly driven by the objective to reduce greenhouse gas emissions. The amount of electric power which can be supplied to the grid depends on the time of the day and weather conditions. A conventional fleet of thermal power plants is required to compensate for these fluctuations before large scale energy storage technologies will be mature and economically ...

Meeting the Materials and Manufacturing Challenge for Ultra High Efficiency PF Power Plants with CCS (NEXTGENPOWER)

Start date: May 1, 2010, End date: Oct 31, 2014,

Carbon Capture and Sequestration has become an important technology to comply with the CO2 reduction targets set by the EC. However CCS has the drawback that the electrical efficiency of the coal fired power plant will drop significantly. To overcome this drawback, one has to increase the base efficiency of the power plant or increase the biomass co-firing share as this is a CO2 neutral energy sou ...
