Abstract
Finally, life cycle cost analysis (LCCA) was carried out for the LDAC system using various types of energy storage modes. The comparison indicated that 90% solar fraction LDAC system is the most economic system related to unit prices of solar collector and gas prices in Egypt. The total annual cost for the 90% solar assisted LDAC system is found to be lower than that of a vapor compression cycle (VCC) by about 50.5%. At the second order, the thermal energy storage mode by 49%. On the other side, the thermochemical energy storage mode is the least cost saving energy storage mode.
