Abstract

Although the thermodynamic potential of transcritical/supercritical power cycles running on CO2 mixtures for next generation Concentrated Solar Power plants has been already confirmed in literature, further investigation to assess the actual feasibility of this technology from a techno-economic standpoint is needed. In fact, large uncertainty is found when it comes to the estimation of the CapEx of the power block, and the same can be said for the solar subsystem when higher-than-SoA operating temperature are considered. In this paper, two CSP schemes, with different maximum operating temperatures, are studied: one employing molten salts and another based on solid particles.
