A solar gas turbine (SGT) system for electricity generation integrates several key components: a solar field,  a compressor, a combustion chamber (combustor), a turbine, and a generator. The solar field consists of concentrators and solar receivers. Concentrators focus solar radiation onto solar receives that convert the solar resource to heat. The compressor plays a crucial role of increasing the pressure of the working fluid before it enters the solar receiver or combustor. Modern combustor designs aim at reducing emissions while maintaining efficiency. Operating at extremely high temperatures, turbines require effective cooling systems to prevent structural failure. The turbine produces mechanical energy, and it is coupled to an electric generator that converts the mechanical energy into electricity. Proper control systems are essential to manage the complex interactions and processes within the SGT system, ensuring optimal performance and reliable electricity output under varying conditions. This chapter provides a detailed discussion of the critical components of the system, highlighting the importance of the solar receiver and combustor in advancing the SGT technology. Their effective integration and optimization are pivotal for improving the overall efficiency and sustainability of SGT systems.
