FLEXnCONFU – FLEXibilize combined cycle power plant through Power-to-X solutions using non-CONventional FUels

FLEXnCONFU – FLEXibilize combined cycle power plant through Power-to-X solutions using non-CONventional FUels is a research project funded by EU’s research and innovation programme Horizon 2020 (GA 884157), with the goal to develop and demonstrate innovative, economically viable and replicable power-to-X-to-power solutions that combine all available options for the effective and flexible use of surplus power from renewable energies to levelling the power plant load by converting electricity into hydrogen or ammonia prior to converting it back to power. This will enable the design and operation of an integrated power plant layout that can untap additional combined cycle flexibility.

TPG role

WP4 leader. TPG-UNIGE will host the P2A2P demonstrator at its Innovative Energy Systems (IES) laboratory, providing also the micro gas turbine (mGT) that will be properly modified to be fuelled with ammonia. Moreover, being also the leader of Task 4.5 – TRL6 lab campaign, monitoring and validation, TPG-UNIGE will be responsible for installing, commissioning and test campaign of the integrated P2A2P demo.
