Abstract

In the present study, a solar power-assisted multi-generation system was experimentally investigated. An evacuated tube heat pipe solar collector was used for thermal energy conversion from solar energy. Electrical energy, hydrogen energy and cold energy were produced from the thermal energy obtained. Conversion from thermal energy to electrical energy was carried out using the Organic Rankine Cycle (ORC) system, PEM electrolyser for hydrogen production and ejector cooling system for cold energy production. In the presented study, the thermo-economic and thermo-environmental analysis of the solar energy-based multi-generation system was examined. The enviroeconomic analysis and exergoenviroeconomic analysis results of the whole system were calculated as $1.22 and 816.3 kgCO2, respectively.
