To fulfill the Chinese government?s targets for energy conservation and emission reductions, significant efforts to increase efficiency and reduce emissions in the energy system have been made by developing combined heat and power plants, expanding transmission, and incorporating renewables. These elements are not always compatible with each other, however. Renewables in particular face difficulties...
Expanding the deployment of small scale renewable energy technologies such as photovoltaic has implications on how much of consumers' load has to be supplied by the electricity grid. The actual impact depends on the local resource potential as well as on the specific regional composition of consumers. It is therefore important to take into consideration geospatial aspects when modeling energy systems...
This paper addresses unit commitment for micro-grid optimization including renewable sources, working under deregulated power market. As micro-grid supplies both of heat and electricity consumer, operational optimization must be done in coordination. So far in this paper, renewable energy sources are considered to be negative load, and batteries, as well, are used as the load flattened device to raise...
The aim of the presented research is to analyze prospective power supply scenarios for an exemplary Swiss region using a multiple-level model. The considered region is subdivided into its settlement units to form the levels. Each level comprises distinct conversion technologies to supply the load. The power supply is composed of various energy carriers, like electricity, gas and heat, in order to...
In a remote coastal region supply of energy from national grid is insufficient for a sustainable development. Integration and optimization of local alternative renewable energy sources is an optional solution of the problem. In this paper we have studied the energetic potential of local sources of renewable energy (hydro, solar and wind). A bottom-up energy system optimization model is proposed in...
In the migration towards ICT-enabled power systems, smart metering plays a crucial role. Smart metering allows energy efficiency to be attained via price stimuli in different tariff schemes. An investigation of a case study for residential applications in Flanders shows that demand response allows substantial cost savings beyond the current double tariff rate. However, in the case for which distributed...
The waste materials that are produced daily from different sources can be used to produce energy from which we can get electricity. The conventional fuels required for production of electricity is decreasing day by day and it is very important to find out alternative sources which can be used as the fuel for the production of electricity especially for developing countries like Bangladesh. This paper...
