The paradigm shift in the energy policy of the European Union confronts the member states with the task of developing future renewable and fossil-free energy systems. This change involves the installation of intermittent renewable energy sources such as wi ...
The incessant growth in energy demand has resulted in the deployment of renewable energy generators to reduce the impact of fossil fuel dependence. However, these generators often suffer from intermittency and require energy storage when there is over-gene ...

A promising pathway to follow in order to reach sustainable development goals is
an increased reliance on renewable sources of energy. The optimized use of these energy sources,
however, requires the assessment of their potential supply, along with the dem ...

Coupling photovoltaic (PV) systems with energy storage (ES) in buildings, enables to increase the building’s energy autonomy and the self-consumption of onsite renewables. ES increases nonetheless the life cycle environmental impact of the stored energy. A ...
Exergy and environmental analyses have been developed to determine the performance of the electricity generation in the Dutch mix. A comparative assessment of diverse technological routes, including fossil and renewable energy resources consumption, is car ...
It is a frequent practice nowadays to use mean annual conversion factors (CFs) when performing life-cycle assessment (LCA) of processes and products that use electricity supplied by the grid. In this paper, we conduct an hourly assessment of the greenhouse ...
Battery energy storage systems (BESSs) are expected to play a major role in the power grid of the near future. These devices, capable of storing and returning electrical energy, are valuable assets to a grid that integrates more and more distributed, inter ...
The knowledge that wind power is very productive in winter and that photovoltaic (PV) installations can produce more electricity in alpine environments than in the valleys is not completely new. Yet these insights have remained little appreciated or acted ...
In this paper we present a procedure for the optimal siting and sizing of Energy Storage Systems (ESSs) owned, and directly controlled by network operators of Active Distribution Networks (ADNs). The peculiarity of the proposed planning procedure consists ...
This paper presents a method for the optimal siting and sizing of energy storage systems (ESSs) in active distribution networks (ADNs) to achieve their dispatchability. The problem formulation accounts for the uncertainty inherent to the stochastic nature ...
