The power plant of Simeri Crichi (Calabria Region, Italy) under study was already managed by Edison S.p.A. and it is fueled by natural gas. This study is dealing with the hypothesis to perform a retrofit device of the plant, with the addition of a standard “CO2 Capture”, able to perform a capture rate up to 90%; it has been proposed here the sizing of the compression station and the pipeline which connects the plant to the injection site Botricello 1, studied in the frame of a gross screening of the storage sites in the Calabria Region in Italy. This study took into account the costs of construction, operation and maintenance (O&M) of both the compression plant and the sound pipeline. Eventually, an estimation of the gross static storage capacity of the Botricello1 reservoir is provided.

Abstract Europe and the United States, in particular, promote the deregulation of the electric power industry in favor of renewable energy generation. With an increase in renewable energy generation, thermal power generation has been switched to standby power. Ammonia, one of the storage and transport media for H2, is produced in a highly efficient oxyfuel IGCC (integrated coal gasification combined cycle) system with CO2 capture, for the future hydrogen-using society. Using ammonia as an industrial raw material, agricultural fertilizer, and transportation fuel, energy system can be established by combining renewable energy and thermal power generation. Therefore, it is possible to simultaneously construct a thermal power supply system suitable for backup power source owing to the fluctuation of the renewable power generation and to realize improvement of availability of the thermal power plant and the load-leveling. It will be an incentive to build a future zero-emission thermal power plant. In this study, an oxy-fuel IGCC power generation co-produced with ammonia and CO2 capture is proposed. Furthermore, the features and challenges of a gas turbine that fuels CO2-free NH3 are investigated. In particular, the combustion exhaust characteristics of ammonia/oxygen fired semiclosed cycle gas turbine combustor in comparison with those of the conventional fuels are clarified through a kinetic analysis.
