The series is organised by ETN Global, with the support of ETIP SNET and in cooperation with five EU Horizon 2020 projects: FLEXnCONFU (grant agreement n. 884157), HYFLEXPOWER (grant agreement n. 884229), PUMP-HEAT (grant agreement n. 764706), sCO2-flex (grant agreement n. 764690), and TURBO-REFLEX (grant agreement n. 764545).

“PUMP-HEAT. Innovative concept to increase flexibility of combined cycle power plants and gas turbines”, the 4th episode of ETN’s webinar series on Flexible Power Generation, will take place on 12 January 2021, 12 pm -1 pm CET.

The objective of the PUMP-HEAT is to increase the flexibility of the Combined Cycle (CC) power plant and the operation of gas turbines. The innovative concept is based on the coupling of CC power plants with a fast-cycling highly efficient Heat Pump (HP) equipped with Thermal Energy Storage (TES). PUMP-HEAT is funded under the Horizon 2020 research and innovation programme, under grant agreement n. 764706.
