Abstract
Geothermal energy is one of the most attractive clean, sustainable and renewable energy sources due to its independency on weather conditions as the case for solar and wind energy. A hybrid geothermal/solar system for power production is proposed. The proposed system could be considered as highly efficient and cost-effective system. A concentrated solar thermal power generation (CSP) of type parabolic trough collector (PTC) is selected to improve the efficiency of the cycle and increase the electricity output by increasing the temperature of the incoming geothermal fluid. By using this system, the net power generation will increase up to 10% in a month compared to normal systems, and 7.6% in a year.
