A thermochemical heat storage system using Ca­(OH)2/CaO in a fluidized bed reactor (FBR) is integrated with a biomass power plant of a steam Rankine cycle (SRC) as one of the Carnot battery systems that are expected to provide renewable electricity highly flexibly. This study utilizes the proposed f...
