    A Gis-Based Fahp and Fedas Analysis Framework for Suitable Site Selection of a Hybrid Offshore Wind and Solar Power Plant
    (Elsevier B.V., 2023) Karipoğlu, Fatih; Ozturk, S.; Efe, B.
    This study presents a Geographic Information System (GIS) based suitable site selection methodology for a hybrid system that includes offshore wind and solar PV. The methodology utilizes open source databases about decision criteria and applies this data using GIS to determine suitable sites for offshore wind and solar PV systems. For the assessment of multi-criteria which affect the potential hybrid energy power plants and the determination of the best suitable areas, Fuzzy Analytical Hierarchy Process (FAHP) and Fuzzy Evaluation based on Distance Average Solution (FEDAS) are used in the study. Results show that technical criteria has the priority weight of 0.60 while the weight of social criteria is about 0.07. Among sub-criteria, the wind speed has the highest priority weight while distance to port and visibility are the highest criteria of priority weight under economic and social main criteria, respectively. Among the alternatives, Area 2 (A-2) is determined as the best alternative for hybrid offshore power plants in the study area. This proposed methodology can be utilized by decision-makers to determine the best suitable locations for hybrid offshore wind and solar PV systems at any location. This paper suggests a new approach integrating GIS, fuzzy setbased AHP and EDAS as a novelty. © 2023 International Energy Initiative

    Multi-Objective Optimization of a Novel Supercritical Co2 Cycle-Based Combined Cycle for Solar Power Tower Plants Integrated With Sofc and Lng Cold Energy and Regasification
    (Wiley, 2022) Taheri, Muhammad Hadi; Khani, Leyla; Mohammadpourfard, Mousa; Aminfar, Habib; Gökçen Akkurt, Gülden
    This study presents a new system for solar power, which is generated through a solar power tower with a molten salt cycle. To increase the consumption of energy losses, besides the closed supercritical carbon dioxide (sCO2) Brayton cycle, a liquid natural gas (LNG) open-cycle was used as a heat sink alongside a cascade organic Rankine cycle with the capability of working at low temperatures. LNG is implemented for a solid oxide fuel cell input, after cooling down the power generation systems and power generation. Besides the economic and thermodynamic analysis, destruction of exergy has been controlled and parametric studies are performed to investigate the influence of relative factors on the performance of the system. To optimize the system, a genetics algorithm has been employed by considering two reciprocal objective functions of the total cost rate and the exergy efficiency. The results of multi-objective optimization show that the optimized point has a total product cost rate of $115.3/h and an exergy efficiency of 71%. Furthermore, exergy analysis shows that the molten salt heat exchangers and the LNG heat exchangers have the maximum rates of irreversibility and must be taken into consideration as a major priority for optimization.
