The invention relates to a power generating system for balancing services and electricity production, a method of modifying an existing power generating plant to provide balancing services and electricity production, the use of electrolysis for providing balancing services to an existing power generating plant, and a process for producing electricity. The power generating system comprises a compression section, a combustion section, and an expansion section, the compression section being in fluid communication with a combustion section, the combustion section being in fluid communication with an expansion section, wherein the power generating system is configured to flow a working medium in a closed-loop, wherein the power generating system is configured such that oxygen and a reductant power the power generating system to generate electricity, and wherein the power generating system is configured to provide electricity to i) an electricity grid, and ii) in an event of a surplus of electricity on the electricity grid, an electrolysis section,
A power generating system for balancing services and electricity production, comprising:
A method of modifying an existing gas turbine power plant or other power generating plant to provide balancing services and electricity production, the plant comprising a compression section, a combustion section, and an expansion section, the compression section being in fluid communication with the combustion section, the combustion section being in fluid communication with the expansion section, the plant being configured such that oxygen and a reductant power the plant to generate electricity, and the plant being configured to provide electricity to an electricity grid, wherein the method comprises a step of configuring the plant to provide electricity in an event of a surplus of electricity on the electricity grid to an electrolysis section to produce oxygen and hydrogen.
A method comprising use of electrolysis for providing balancing services to an existing gas turbine power plant or other existing power generating plant, the plant comprising a compression section, a combustion section, and an expansion section, the compression section being in fluid communication with the combustion section, the combustion section being in fluid communication with the expansion section, wherein the plant is configured such that oxygen and a reductant power the plant to generate electricity, the plant being configured to provide electricity to an electricity grid, wherein in an event of a surplus of electricity on the electricity grid the plant is capable of providing electricity to an electrolysis section producing oxygen and hydrogen.
A process for producing electricity, comprising:
