Presentation Of Two Small Power Polygeneration Demonstration Plants In Portugal

摘要

This paper describes the work developed so far by the Portuguese partners, involved in the POLYSMART Project. The main goal of the aforementioned project is to support the development of the market for small and medium capacity tri-generation plants, installing twelve demonstration systems, which involve a wide variety of different solutions, using commercial cogeneration systems fed by renewable or non renewable primary sources combined with small thermally driven cooling machines in different stages of development and with different operation principles. The paper makes a review of the rationale for the tri-generation concept in the Portuguese context, describes the two demonstration systems preview for installation in Portugal, shows the configuration adopted for both systems, the monitoring and evaluation procedure already agreed among the partners.
