Abstract: Steam reforming of the fuel in chemically recuperated gas turbine (CRGT) plants allows performing a heat recovery of the gas turbine exhausts, boosting the plant performance. Power-to-liquids technologies are a very interesting solution for storing the excess of renewable electricity into liquid fuels. Among the renewable fuels, methanol is well-known as a hydrogen carrier and an energy feedstock. Indeed, methanol can be stored, transported, and used in an easier way than hydrogen.
