Abstract: A novel solar hybrid power generation system with near zero CO2 emission (ZE-SOLRGT) has been proposed in the previous work, which is based on a GRAZ-like cycle integrating methane–steam reforming, solar-driven steam generation and CO2 capture. Solar heat assistance increases power output and reduces fossil fuel consumption. Besides near zero CO2 emission with oxy-fuel combustion and cascade recuperation of turbine exhaust heat, the system is featured with indirect upgrading of low-mid temperature solar heat and its high efficiency heat-to-power conversion.
