Theoretical Analysis of Performance of a Micro Gas Turbine Co/Trigeneration System for Residential Buildings in a Tropical Region

This study shows performance of micro gas turbine (MGT) based cogeneration system (CGS) and trigeneration system (TGS) in residential buildings located in the area with a tropical climate. Energy, economic and environmental performance of MGT-CGS and MGT-TGS were studied. MGT-CGS consists of an MGT...

Furthermore, the payback period for the MGT-TGS was also shorter than MGT-CGS, 13.8 years under highly subsidized electricity tariff.

MGT-CGS and MGT-TGS can also reduce pollutants especially NOx emissions compared to conventional systems.
