Conference Title: 2015 IEEE Power & Energy Society General Meeting Conference Start Date: 2015, July 26 Conference End Date: 2015, July 30 Conference Location: Denver, CO, USA The role of hybrid power plant (HPP) is very important nowadays due to the rapid growth in renewable energy and energy storage technologies. The efficient utilization of available resources is essential in such HPP to meet the expected raise in power demands. Tri-generation and energy storage facilities (ESF) at HPP help for better utilization of available resources. Moreover, proper scheduling of such plants ensure a significant reduction in the amount of pollutants emissions also. A clean and efficient power dispatch (CEPD) method to minimize the amount of fuel utilization and pollutants emission at HPP by tri-generation in presence of ESF is discussed in this paper. The analyses are carried out using MATLAB simulations. Results show that the proposed method has a vital role in achieving a clean and energy efficient power generation.
