Economic and Evironmental based Operation Strategies of a Hybrid Photovoltaic-microgas Turbine Trigeneration System

This study investigates the economic and environmental performance of a photovoltaic (PV) and microgas turbine trigeneration system (MGT-TGS) based hybrid energy system with various operation strategies. The hybrid system covers power, heating and cooling load of a selected building under a tropical...
