“…The results indicated that the single pressure layout performed better than the dual pressure layout, and among the compared ORC working fluids, the plant with R245fa is the least expensive. Ruzzenenti et al[120] evaluated the environmental sustainability of a solar-geothermal mCHP plant operating with an ORC unit in Pisa, Italy. Only evacuated tube solar collectors were included in the plant.…”

“…An ORC efficiency of 7-11% was reached by using R245fa, reducing the solar field capital costs due to lower need of flow rate. On the basis of previous plant, Ruzzenenti et al [24] analysed the environmental sustainability through a Life Cycle Analysis and an Exergy Life Cycle Analysis, utilising existing geothermal wells. However, the size of the above mentioned plant is significantly higher than the one considered in the present paper (50 vs. 6 kW e ).…”

“…The performance of a small combined heat and power (CHP) plant for use in a conventional house in the Republic of Ireland is evaluated in [8]. The environmental sustainability of a micro-CHP unit fueled by solar energy is discussed in [9] which is useful for the long-term exploitation of the designed system. Ref.…”
