Abstract

The problem discussed in this paper is optimal sizing of biomass-fired ORC cogeneration unit into existing coal fired district heating plant under given site-specific technical, economic and ecological constraints. In this paper the municipal heating plant in Krosno is taken into account as the reference case. Basing on the operational experiences from this unit an optimisation study has been performed in order to examine the influence of current economic and legal conditions on the optimal design characteristics of the plant. Different electricity, biomass and coal prices are taken into account as well as the influence of the EUA (European Emission Allowance) price is examined
