Hi I would like to ask the community if we can set up a post for a new energy system I have been working on ,I think it works out more efficient and ecologically better , and its large scale thinking for energy systems , and now I need to check through my figures and need the views of IET thinkers for instance on combustion , post combustion chemistry , it unfolds into quite a complex system which I have been working on for 8 years , but enables us to get more energy from wastes and perhaps helps to move to biomaterials. I have an interest as environmental thinker and have designed the system to go through to government funding phases and pretty confident it works well in a number of questions around energy and environmental thinking .
Even though ethanol is a good fuel to make , i dont think we can make enough to power a 500mw gas turbine and it would be difficult to gather it to a central user so may be better to use ethanol locally . The hydrogen gas turbine is interesting , one maker is claiming 100% hydrogen can be used , my guess is that a purpose built gas turbine for hydrogen is the solution , but may not be 500mw .The hydrogen , oxygen fuel gas turbine would be a dream come true could do all sorts of power systems options with that and I think a good route to go for. I am not sure if the large battery is important now either , if we have hydrogen we have energy storagae for large fuel cells , and there are other solutions for peak plants for grids now , either pumped hydro or compressed air
