abstract = "This study presents an integration of one technology of concentrated solar power (CSP) with a conventional thermal power plant in Jordan. Linear Fresnel Reflectors (LFR) was considered as the CSP technology, while the feed-water heating system of a 40-year-old 33 MW generating capacity unit in a Rankine cycle-based power plant was seen as the field of study. Such a hybrid system be shown to improve the efficiency of the current power plant, reduces fuel consumption and reduces pollutants' emissions, especially Greenhouse Gases (GHG). System Advisor Model (SAM) software was used in this study as a simulation tool to determine the required solar field aperture area and predicted the performance of the LFR system. Thermodynamics principles were applied here to analyze the main components of the current steam Rankine cycle.",
