Abstract: An installation for generating energy comprises a compressor assembly for compressing air, having a low-pressure compressor, which is connected to a high-pressure compressor via a primary air path. Furthermore, a compressor turbine assembly is provided for the purpose of driving the low-pressure compressor and/or the high-pressure compressor. The installation also has a combustion device for burning a suitable mixture of compressed air and a fuel, and a power turbine with a rotatable shaft for releasing mechanical energy. An exhaust-gas pipe system is connected to the exhaust-gas outlet of the power turbine.

Abstract: An installation is proposed for generating electrical energy in an open circuit for a gaseous fluid, comprising a compressor unit driven by a turbine receiving the compressed fluid after its passage through an exhaust gas heat exchanger, the installation further comprising a power generator driven by a gas turbine, the circuit also comprising a fuel cell receiving natural gas in its anode from an external source and receiving the gaseous fluid from the compressor unit as an oxidizing agent in its cathode, the electrical power originating from both the generator and the fuel cell forming the output of the installation.
