Abstract

As the world’s population grows and energy demand increases, there is a need to switch from fossil fuels to renewable energy. In order to preserve the environment and meet these growing demands, especially for cooling applications, trigeneration systems could be the answer. The aim of this work is to provide a structured overview of the current state of the art in the field of trigeneration (CCHP) systems. Firstly, these systems and their applications are presented. An overview of the different indicators used to describe the performance of these systems is given. A comparison between CCHP (combined cooling, heat, and power) systems is made. Finally, improvements and other concepts found in the literature are presented. This review will later serve as a basis for the exergo-economic optimization of a low-temperature CCHP system based on renewable energy sources. Therefore, more attention is given to the technologies used for such systems.
