An electrical power generation system

摘要

An electrical power generating system which includes a fossil fuel powered electrical generator (1505) and carbon capture apparatus (1410) associated with the fossil fuel powered electrical generator to capture carbon emissions (1511 ) from the electrical generator. A solar electrical power generating array (400) is located in proximity to the fossil fuel powered electrical generator. The fossil fuel powered electrical generator (1505) and the solar electrical power generating array (400) are for supplying base load electrical power (1510, 1540) over a 24 hour cycle to remotely located consumers. The fossil fuel powered electrical generator (1505) is located in proximity to a source of the fossil fuel (1500) for the captured carbon emissions to be sequestered (1412) within that source, being a source in which the captured carbon emissions are sequesterable. The invention addresses the problem of the fossil fuel reserves existing large distances from the end-user and utilizes advantageously local and distributed solar energy product.
