Basel on its way to the 2000-Watt-Society

Energy demand and renewable potentials need to be synchronized in time and space. Energy has to be provided at the right place at the time of demand and in the quantity needed. This means, that a spatial model of the region has to be elaborated that is bas ...

Evaluating the sensitivity of grid integration level for a multi energy hubs

Jean-Louis Scartezzini, Dasaraden Mauree, Amarasinghage Tharindu Dasun Perera, Vahid Moussavi Nik

Renewable energy integration into multi energy grids (MEG) is gradually getting popular due to the rapid depletion of fossil fuel resources and the global concern on GHG emissions through fossil fuel based energy conversion technologies. However, seasonal ...

Environomic optimal design of power plants with CO2 capture

François Maréchal, Laurence Tock

Life cycle impact assessment indicators are integrated for studying the process integration of renewable resources and CO2 capture and storage (CCS) in power plants. Besides the expected reduction in global warming potential (GWP), CCS induces energy and c ...

Thermo-environomic evaluation of the ammonia production

François Maréchal, Laurence Tock, Matthieu Perrenoud

Within the global challenge of sustainable energy supply and greenhouse gas emissions mitigation, carbon capture and storage and the deployment of renewable resources are considered as promising solutions. In this study the production of ammonia mainly use ...

Energy flows monitoring at the Cantonal level

Massimiliano Capezzali, Mélanie Guittet

As an increased number of measures (Swiss or European level) aim at developing more sustainable policies for energy management and reduction of CO2 emissions in particular (for example, the 3x20 policy), very few tools currently exist at the regional/canto ...

Novel models towards predictive control of advanced building systems and occupant comfort in buildings

Nikolaos Zarkadis

People in developed countries spend today most of their time inside buildings as part of the modern way of life. As a result, the building sector accounts for almost 40% of the total energy consumption and a big part of the energy bill goes to maintain the ...

Evaluation and optimization of renewable energy in the Quartier Nord

Yuchen Yang, Yao Yang

The energy demand increases worldwide and due to the fact that fossil fuel is still dominating the energy mix, the corresponding CO2 emission becomes a more serious problem that threatens the global environment. The building sector is the largest energy co ...

Worldwide impacts of climate change on energy for heating and cooling

Marc Vielle, Frédéric Louis François Babonneau, Santosh Ram Joshi

The energy sector is not only a major contributor to greenhouse gases, it is also vulnerable to climate change and will have to adapt to future climate conditions. The objective of this study is to analyze the impacts of changes in future temperatures on t ...

Energy Challenges in the Global South

Silvia Hostettler

Energy needs at the global level are gigantic and steadily increasing while the need to reduce carbon emissions is vital if catastrophic climate change is to be avoided. In the Global South, a large part of the population still lacks access to energy, whic ...

Heavy hydrocarbon mixtures as fuels for SIEMENS DLE gas turbines

Associated gases at oil wells are often rich in heavy hydrocarbons (HHC, here denoting hydrocarbons heavier than methane). HHC may cause handling and combustion difficulties as their properties are different from standard natural gas, therefore HHC rich as ...
