Abstract:
A large technical potential for ORC deployment exists of smaller scale systems, but most commercial applications are in the MW range, and only a few in the kW power range. Today, most research is spent on technical ORC improvements, and cost aspects are treated as an ex-post add-on. Recognizing high investment costs as the main impediment for wide application, this research considers minimization of life-cycle expenses on ORC projects as the main objective.
