Yazd Integrated Solar Combined Cycle Power Plant


Title: Yazd Integrated Solar Combined Cycle Power Plant
Start Date: 2011
End Date: 2013
Client: MAPNA Combined Cycle Power Plant Construction and Development Co.
Main Client: Iran Power Development Co (IPDC) - Iran
Location: Yazd - Iran
Scope Of Work: In the formation of EPCM Monenco and the Spanish partner provide engineering on Basic & Detail Design and Procurement & Construction Management.

Details:
The plant is located near Yazd – in the middle of Iran - beside existing combined cycle power plant. The design of the power plant is based on the Integrated Solar Combined Cycle (ISCC) configuration. The plant has nominal capacity of 474 MWel, and consists of two gas turbines of 157 MWel each. The gas turbines are linked with two Heat Recovery Steam Generators (HRSG) supplying steam to a 160 MWel steam turbine. Additional steam is provided by the parabolic mirror field via solar heat exchangers. Hot heat transfer fluid (HTF), is pumped from the parabolic mirror field through two heat
exchangers where saturated steam is
generated. This “solar” steam is admitted to the HRSGs, and contributes through the
thermodynamic cycle of the steam turbine to an electrical power output of approximately 17 MWel.
