- Additional information
- New operating options allowing Allam cycle power plants (ACPP) to provide significant flexibility in future electricity systems are proposed and the value of providing energy storage to electricity networks by building flexible ACPPs is demonstrated for the first time. The proposed concept of liquid oxygen storage as energy storage is commended and reused by the group at University of Pisa, Italy (DOI:10.1016/j.est.2020.101247). Review by the group at the Central Michigan University, USA (DOI:10.3390/en12214143) commends the parameter optimisation and calls the optimised Allam cycle "a new and potentially viable method to reduce carbon dioxide emissions from fossil fuel power plants".
