Two novel hybrid combined cycle power systems that use solar heat and methanol, and integrate CO2capture, are proposed and analyzed, one based on solar-driven methanol decomposition and the other on solar-driven methanol reforming. The high methanol conversion rates at relatively low temperatures offer the advantage of using the solar heat at only 200–300 °C to drive the syngas production by endothermic methanol conversions and its conversion to chemical energy. Pre-combustion decarbonization is employed to produce CO2-free fuel from the fully converted syngas, which is then burned to produce heat at the high temperature for power generation in the proposed advanced combined cycle systems. To improve efficiency, the systems’ configurations were based on the principle of cascade use of multiple heat sources of different temperatures. The thermodynamic performance of the hybrid power systems at its design point is simulated and evaluated. The results show that the hybrid systems can attain an exergy efficiency of about 55%, and specific CO2emissions as low as 34 g/kW h. Compared to a gas/steam combined cycle with flue gas CO2capture, the proposed solar-assisted system CO2emissions are 36.8% lower, and a fossil fuel saving ratio of ∼30% is achievable with a solar thermal share of ∼20%. The system integration predicts high efficiency conversion of solar heat and low-energy-penalty CO2capture, with the additional advantage that solar heat is at relatively low temperature where its collection is cheaper and simpler. The systems’ components are robust and in common use, and the proposed hybridization approach can be also used with similar benefits by replacing the solar heat input with other low heat sources, and the system integration achieves the dual-purpose of clean use of fossil fuel and high-efficiency conversion of solar heat at the same time.
