This study presents a supercritical solar thermal power plant featuring high-temperature molten salt heat storage (200–650 °C) and a novel thermal storage circuit design.
High-temperature molten salts enable 650 °C storage in solar thermal power plants. Novel dual-loop thermal storage-exchange system (200–650 °C) has been proposed. A 145 MW supercritical solar thermal power plant was analyzed. Novel solar thermal plants achieve 29.43 % photovoltaic conversion efficiency.
Solar power, which is one of the most abundant and sustainable energy sources, has attracted a lot of attention for its clean and renewable attributes amid a growing global demand for renewable energy. Molten salt (MS) energy storage technology is an innovative and effective method of thermal energy storage.
