The facilitation of renewable energy technologies should also consider energy storage says Nicolas Crettenand as he looks at the potential for small storage and pumped storage plants in Switzerland. ...
According to the International Energy Agency, CO2 emissions have to be cut by a factor 2 if one wants to mitigate the effect on the climate change to an acceptable limit. To reach this target, efficient use and conversion of energy resources is expected to ...
This paper estimates the effect of energy tax (and price) changes on Total Factor Productivity (TFP) and net trade at the industry level, using a panel of industries from European countries covering the period 1990-2003. We investigate the hypothesis that ...
Nowadays most of the decisions in the field of energy supply lead to an increased use of renewable energy resources. Such decisions imply several consequences for instance in electrical power generation. Indeed, replacing conventional energy sources by mor ...
Understanding the fate of an electronically excited molecule constitutes an important task for theoretical chemistry, and practical implications range from the interpretation of atto- and femtosecond spectroscopy to the development of light-driven molecula ...
A fundamental requirement for a renewable energy generation technology is that it should produce more energy during its lifetime than is required to manufacture it. In this study we evaluate the primary energy requirements of a prospective renewable energy ...
In Switzerland, the government has made ambitious plans for a major energy transition. There is a planned phase out of nuclear facilities by mid-century, their capacity replaced by an expansion of hydroelectric infrastructure, new geothermal installations, ...
Efficiency and energy consumption reduction are becoming a key issue in elevation applications. Energy Storage Systems (ESS) can play a significant role in this field, together with their associated Energy Management Strategy (EMS) to optimize the overall ...

Hydrogen is often regarded as a viable clean burning alternative to our current petroleum based fuel sources as a result of its high gravimetric energy d. and renewable nature. Furthermore, H2 has received significant attention as a transportation fuel. A ...
Deployable structures are structures that transform their shape from a compact state to an extended in-service position. Structures composed of tension elements that surround compression elements in equilibrium are called tensegrity structures. Tensegritie ...
