In this system, the regenerator is designed with electrodialyser to obtain concentrated absorbent solution, and the electric energy gained from the solar photovoltaic generator is utilized to drive the regenerative process. Presents this system, establishes the models for each part, analyses the performance of this system, and verifies the regeneration effect by experiment. The results show that the coefficient of performance for the system is influenced by the concentration of the absorbent and can be higher than 6 under certain circumstances. It also shows that LiBr solution is the most favorable among three common used absorbents.
