“…Additionally, the exergycost-carbon nexus in trigeneration systems based on biomass gasification presents challenges in balancing costs and carbon footprints. Novel exergy-based models help in understanding the allocation rules and optimizing system configurations, considering energetic, economic, and environmental aspects [137]. Furthermore, a biomass-solar hybrid gasification system has been proposed, incorporating solar pyrolysis and photovoltaic-solid oxide electrolysis cell, which significantly improves the total energy conversion efficiency and carbon efficiency from biomass to fuel [138].…”

Renewable energy integration is a crucial approach for achieving a low-carbon energy supply in industrial utility systems. However, the uncertainty of user demand often leads to a mismatch between the system’s real operating conditions and the optimal operating points, resulting in energy wastage and high emissions. This study presents a multi-source heat and power system that integrates biomass gasification, solar collecting, solid oxide fuel cell (SOFC), gas turbine, and steam power systems. A scheduling strategy that varies the heat-to-power ratio is proposed to accommodate changes in user requirements. A simulation model of this multi-source system is established and validated. The influence of three key parameters on system performance under different configurations is explored. Energy and economic evaluations are conducted for three different configurations, and the system’s energy production and adjustable range are determined. The analysis reveals that, under the optimal configuration, the system can achieve an energy efficiency of 64.51%, and it is economically feasible with the levelized cost of electricity (LCOE) of USD 0.16/kWh. The system is capable of producing an output power ranging from 11.52 to 355.53 MW by implementing different configuration strategies. The heat-to-power ratio can be adjusted from 0.91 to 28.09.
