3 INTRODUCTION Use of non-renewable energy cause environmental pollution and also they gets depleted Pollution free, freely available renewable sources are best alternative Solar power plants are widely used but its main problem is variability Biomass plants are also used but its fuel availability in large amount is difficult
4
4 INTRODUCTION contd.. To overcome the disadvantages of both power plants they are combined By shared use of some of the equipments effective cost is less than simple addition Effective operating hours and therefore overall energy generation is higher Hence this can be considered as technology for future

8 WORKING . . Most cost effective and reliable among the three It is constructed as a long parabolic trough- shaped mirror, generally made of polished metal Heat transfer fluid (usually oil) runs through the tube to absorb the concentrated sunlight. Heat from this HTF is used to produce super heated high pressure steam

Characteristics of STPP
1212 Characteristics of STPP Collects thermal energy from sunrise When obtained energy is insufficient stored energy is used Hence constant electrical output is obtained Stored energy will be depleted sooner and thereafter no energy production

PROPOSED BIOMASS SUPPORTED STPP FOR STABLE AND CONTINUOUS OPERATION
1313 PROPOSED BIOMASS SUPPORTED STPP FOR STABLE AND CONTINUOUS OPERATION Large amount of budget will be required for building of large storage system Biomass supported plant can contribute to generate electrical energy continuously An auxiliary boiler is used to heat water whose fuel is provided from the biomass plant It maintain rated parameters of STHPP Hence generate electrical energy stably and continuously

1414 Solar thermal power plant with an auxiliary boiler In addition an auxiliary boiler is placed Fuel to boiler is provided from the biomass plant Steam from the boiler is given to the turbine in case of insufficient solar radiation
15
Characteristics of STHPP with auxiliary boiler
1515 Characteristics of STHPP with auxiliary boiler Storage energy of STHPP remain almost constant throughout the day So the electrical energy produced is stable and continuous
16
CONTRIBUTION OF THERMAL ENERGY STORAGE SYSTEM
1616 CONTRIBUTION OF THERMAL ENERGY STORAGE SYSTEM Thermal energy is relatively easier and less costly to store compared to electrical energy Sensible heat storage is most commonly used heat storage Thermal storage system of STHPP consists of two distinct tanks
17
1717 CONTD . . One contains working fluid leaving the solar reflector and other contains cooled working fluids leaving the steam generator Tanks must be of same size, in case of unavoidable disturbances entire contents should be stored in one tank Thermal energy is passed to storage if the temperature of heat source is higher than heat loads and vice versa
18
1818 BIOMASS FOR STPP Obtained from biological materials such as plants, trees, waste, sewage gas etc The effectiveness of power generation requires availability of biological materials and their transportation Combustion gases from the auxiliary boiler are conveyed to flue gas cleaning system and cleaned gases are released to atmosphere We must integrate the correct sources of energy for optimal power supply to a region It depend on geographical characters of region, transportation, transmission and distribution lines
19
ADVANTAGE OF BIOMASS SUPPORTED STHPP
1919 ADVANTAGE OF BIOMASS SUPPORTED STHPP Redundant energy is stored during sunny days When the parameters of steam cannot reach rated value during insufficient solar radiation, then biomass plant starts to operate Thus mixed steam reaches to rated value at exit of receiver Ensures 100% use of renewable sources to generate electricity Reduce pollution and increase the efficiency of STHPP

FURTHER RESEARCH FOR STHPP SYSTEM
2020 FURTHER RESEARCH FOR STHPP SYSTEM To minimize the cost of large solar thermal energy storage system The operation of auxiliary boiler fed from biomass fuel should be more optimized and automatic for stable and reliable operation
