This study proposes a solar-attribute-aware scheduling framework for CSP-TES integrated energy systems, embedding a solar-thermal attribute state in TES balance to track solar-derived heat amid hydrogen-recovered and CO2-capture heat. It qu…

Senquan Li, Jianwei Gao, Peifeng Yin +3

This study proposes a solar-attribute-aware scheduling framework for CSP-TES integrated energy systems where TES discharge mixes solar and non-solar heat from hydrogen conversion and CO2 capture. A solar-thermal attribute state tracks the s…
