Assesment of green mobility scenarios on European energy systems

Jonas Schnidrig

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 transition in energy matrix, from fossil to renewable energy sources, will require the utilization of grid levelling alternatives to cope with the intermittent characteristic of renewable energy. Advanced electrochemical energy conversion and storage d ...

EPFL2019

In the past decade, atomically engineered nanomaterials with different sizes and exposed facets have been proven to be excellent model systems to advance catalytic studies. Colloidal chemistry is one of the most powerful wet-chemistry techniques to tailor- ...

An In Situ Surface-Enhanced Infrared Absorption Spectroscopy Study of Electrochemical CO2 Reduction: Selectivity Dependence on Surface C-Bound and O-Bound Reaction Intermediates

Nicola Marzari, Oliviero Andreussi, Francesco Nattino

The CO2 electroreduction reaction (CO2RR) is a promising avenue to convert greenhouse gases into high-value fuels and chemicals, in addition to being an attractive method for storing intermittent renewable energy. Although polycrystalline Cu surfaces have ...

The prospect of a renewable transition seems plausible for many countries, but can be shrouded in risks, costs and challenges. This paper illuminates a path for such a transition with a numerical investigation, aimed at resolving the power dynamics of a co ...

2018

A large number of countries have engaged themselves in an energy transition towards more re- newable energy in their energy systems. Motivations stem mainly from the need to reduce CO2 emissions, and from a desire of their population to phase out technolog ...

Improving the energy sustainability of a Swiss village through building renovation and renewable energy integration

Jean-Louis Scartezzini, Silvia Coccolo, Amarasinghage Tharindu Dasun Perera, Nahid Mohajeri Pour Rayeni, Lucas Mosca, Morgane Le Guen

The integration of renewable energy technologies and building renovation are the two main procedures for improving energy sustainability of buildings at neighborhood scale. It is difficult, however, to optimize these procedures simultaneously. This study f ...
