Abstract

The Republic of Turkey’s current energy policy encourages households, industries, and energy production facilities to be energy wise. In this chapter, the Bursa Ovaakça power plant, which is one of the largest power plants of Turkey, was investigated with regard to boosting production. The scope of this chapter was to design a solar-assisted absorption cooling plant for cooling the intake air of gas turbines. The aim of this chapter is to achieve an efficiency augmentation in gas turbines through a solar energy-assisted absorption cooling system. The COP of the designed absorption cooling system has been calculated to be 0.75, and the utilization factor is 28.6.
