DAILY AND SEASONAL TEMPERATURE DIFFERENCE FOR ELECTRICITY PRODUC-TION

A new approach is proposed to the use of daily and seasonal air temperature minor difference as well as solar energy for the year-round electricity generation. underground heat and cold accumulators that allow to extend the temperature range for thermal power cycle and self-circulation coolants for heat-supply in the evaporator-condenser heat powered installation are used. The new technology is applicable to power plants with 100 ÷ 1000 kW capacity and is especially suitable for the production of electricity in the rural areas, which are distant from the centralized networks of electricity and gas supply.
