Solar- and biomass-assisted hybrid solid oxide fuel cell, thermophotovoltaic, and photovoltaic system for sustainable ammonia and synthetic natural gas production: multi-objective LCA-TEA optimization

This study proposes a novel solar- and biomass-assisted hybrid energy system integrating a solid oxide fuel cell (SOFC), thermophotovoltaic (TPV) unit, PV-powered alkaline electrolyzer, and downstream methanation and ammonia synthesis units. The system is designed for multi-product generation, produ...
