Abstract

Combined cycle heat and power (CHP) plants are expected to play an important role in balancing generation of
heat and electricity from non-dispatchable renewable energy. Retrofitting a CHP plant for hydrogen combustion is a prominent
option to decarbonize (part of) its electricity and heat generation. In this work, we study and optimize different options for using
hydrogen in CHP plants, namely: direct combustion in the gas turbine, supplementary firing in the heat recovery boiler (duct
burner), and oxy-fuel combustion of hydrogen for direct steam production.
