4. 3. Thermo-economic optimization of a combined heat and power plant in Sweden : A case study at Lidköping power plant

   University essay from Blekinge Tekniska Högskola/Institutionen för industriell ekonomi

   Author : Jarl Bergström; Conny Franzon; [2020]
   Keywords : Thermo-economic optimization; energy production planning; CHP; MODEST; combined heat and power plant;

   Abstract : Energy production in power plants comes with both high costs and turnover whereas variations in the production strategy—that is, which boilers, coolers, or generators that should be running—have big impact on the economic result. This is especially true for a combined heat and power (CHP) plant where the production of district heating and electricity is linked, thus allowing for a higher flexibility in the production strategy and potential of increasing the revenue.
