In this review paper, a comprehensive overview of solar organic Rankine cycle technology and the range of systems that have been studied in the literature has been provided. The best working fluid to be used is R134a and R245fa in the hybrid driven organic Rankine cycle. This work aims to shift from conventional fossil fuel-based energy sources to renewable and clean solar energy, minimizing carbon footprint and. . ower generation from temperatures of up to 400oC and for capacities of up to 10 MWel.
