A turbine power generation system with enhanced cooling provided by a stream of carbon dioxide from a carbon dioxide source and a method of using a stream of carbon dioxide to cool hot gas path components. The turbine power generating system includes a compressor, a combustor, a turbine, a generator, and at least one shaft linking the compressor and turbine and generator together such that mechanical energy produced from the turbine is used to drive the compressor and the generator. Carbon dioxide that is sequestered from the exhaust of the turbine may be stored and injected back into the turbine to cool hot gas path components of the turbine.

A system for modulating a frequency output of a generator coupled to an electric distribution network is described herein. The system includes: a doubly-fed induction generator coupled to a power source selected from at least one of hydropower and fuel combustion, the generator providing an electrical power output having a first frequency based on a rotational speed of the generator; a controller for selecting the rotational speed of the generator; and a converter coupled to the generator for changing the frequency of the output to a selected value, in response to selecting the rotational speed. Methods for modulating a frequency output of a generator coupled to an electric distribution network are also described.
