Hybrid power source based on heat and wind power plants

Abstract

The technology of use of electric power of the wind power plants for direct replacement of fuel in the thermal cycles of the heat power plants is offered in the paper. The technology avoids solving the problems of ensuring the quality of electricity and the operational redundancy of the wind power in the power systems, as well as permits combining the achievements of traditional (gas turbine and steam and gas technologies, combined-cycle technologies and heating) and non-traditional renewable energy. The energy and environmental effects from the application of the proposed technology are shown, the technological advantages of the proposed schemes are considered, providing them with a wide scope of practical use both in local and in large power systems. The implementation and development of the proposed technology will allow extending and expanding business for manufacturers of steam turbine and gas turbine equipment, including the transition to the hydrogen power. The proposed technologies are protected by the patent.
