A software-based system was developed for fault detection and diagnosis (FDD) of control systems in typical thermal power plants. For the large-scale industrial processes as thermal power plants, a ...

This study proposes a model predictive controller for concentrating solar power (CSP) plants. Few studies have considered a thermal energy storage system and a power system. The proposed model ...

Virtual power plants turn distributed energy assets like EVs and solar into grid resources without new infrastructure.

Artificial intelligence (AI) is playing a huge role in heat rate optimization. In some cases, AI-driven models have analyzed operational data to recommend control settings that reduce heat rates by 1.

Discover the advantages of district energy systems, which effectively utilize fuel inputs, often through combined heat and ...

The 800 and 500-foot-tall chimneys of an old coal-fired power station in Tennessee were brought down in a controlled ...
