KRISO HOTEC
The 200 kW HOTEC plant also uses 5ºC of deep sea water as heat sink, it utilizes readily available thermal energy resources like geothermal energy near the coast, waste heat from ships, woodchip gasification, and other types of nearby power plants to increase the heat source temperature up to 75ºC which exhibits the efficiency of 7.7%. Currently, KRISO is preparing to conduct a demonstration experiment to verify the validity of the thermal energy from a 500 kW woodchip gasification plant for 200 kW HOTEC plant
