“…Here, the objective is to determine the economic feasibility of the hybrid GDHC system in order to compare the costs and benefits of the proposed hybrid GDHC system with the existing MEA coalfired steam-based system. To achieve this objective, first the LCOH was evaluated in GEOPHIRES [22], [40], [41], [58], [59]. The parameters used to calculate the levelized cost of heat (LCOH) include:…”
