Abstract

A power plant system is provided having a high temperature battery, supplied with fluid via at least one supply line, for storing and releasing electrical energy, a gas turbine for generating electrical energy, and a heat exchanger which is designed to extract thermal energy from the exhaust stream of the gas turbine and transfer said thermal energy to the fluid, which fluid can be supplied after heat transfer to the high temperature battery via the at least one supply line.
