Statistical distributions of lightning current amplitude, time-to-peak and other lightning current parameters used in power system insulation coordination are based on experimental data obtained by means of tall instrumented towers. It is, however, general ...
The electricity demands of buildings for cooling and heating, as well as for office-appliances such as computers, lighting, elevators, keep increasing [Uchiyama2002]. This increase in electricity requirement is directly accompanied by an increase in CO2-em ...
The selection of an hybrid MSF/RO desalination plant depends on many factors, such as capital costs, electricity consumption, water conversion rate and local requirements. In order to provide the necessary information for the decision process, stand-alone ...

Hydrological model calibration should consider two different concepts of predictive uncertainty referring respectively to the statistical uncertainty and the so-called multi-objective equivalence. Currently available studies present different methods to qu ...
The role of the level of reliability of meeting a desired hydropower system's firm energy yield and quantifying the uncertainty of stream-flows in design components of a hydro-electric project is assessed in this study. Sequential stream flow routing (SSR) ...
The paper discusses the interest of the multi-objective optimization approaches for the design of complex energy systems and the basics of the original evolutionary algorithm used. The specific problems linked to the design of the concentrators of solar to ...

The characteristics of the 'Green Heating System', synonymous with 'Environmentally Friendly Heating System', is academically defined from the total energy systems' point of view, using the concept of 'reversible mode of heating' under the current and futu ...
Concern for the environment has been steadily growing in recent years, and it is becoming more common to include environmental impact and pollution costs in the design problem along with construction, investment and operating costs. To further complicate m ...
