| Abstract | This paper will discuss integrating geothermal and solar thermal power generation for medium- to large-scale power plants. It will review current and potential developments in the near future and long term. The author will review current geothermal and solar thermal power generation technology and then examine the potential benefit of combining existing geothermal and solar thermal power generation processes. Finally, the WorleyParsons EcoNomics™ Approach for improving geothermal/solar power plant performance will be discussed. |
