READ MOREAM are currently used only for the determination of the optimal size of the ESS in order to balance the production of renewable energy sources (RES). There has been a lot of debate on the concept of storage as a means to store energy from RES [71 – 73], and this is probably the most commonly studied benefit using AM. It is important to
READ MOREAbstract. Production of biofuels from renewable feedstocks has captured considerable scientific attention since they could be used to supply energy and alternative fuels. Bioethanol is one of the most interesting biofuels due to its positive impact on the environment. Currently, it is mostly produced from sugar- and starch-containing raw
READ MOREAbstract. This article shows that research in the design of 100% renewable energy systems in scientific articles is fairly new but has gained increasing attention in recent years. In total, 180 articles published since 2004 have been identified and analysed. Many of these articles have a predominant focus on the electricity sector.

READ MOREAs the world''s largest contributor to CO 2 emissions at 40% [1], the power sector is going through a low-carbon transition by replacing fossil fuels with renewables.However, research shows that fully replacing the firm fossil generators requires an over-sizing renewable capacity, which comes at a prohibitively high cost
READ MOREThe MITEI report shows that energy storage makes deep decarbonization of reliable electric power systems affordable. "Fossil fuel power plant operators have traditionally responded to demand for electricity — in any given moment — by adjusting the supply of electricity flowing into the grid," says MITEI Director Robert Armstrong, the
READ MOREAside from these dimensions, a question of choice of an energy vector, or energy carrier is asked, which implies transformation of energy between energy vectors with optimal performance. Stated problems require a unified approach to optimization and regulation of a system, and it is assumed that by better defining individual parameters

READ MOREThe reason for this is that relatively small amounts of energy storage are needed to balance renewable generation and demand, for example storing excess solar energy during the day for use at night. Baltimore is the fifth city in which hydrogen-based storage gives lower LCOE, which is surprising because the solar potential there is
READ MORERenewable energy‐based generation plays an essential role in smart microgrids and future power systems. Such generation reduces greenhouse gas emissions produced from fossil fuels and reduces reliance on traditional energy resources. The diversity of renewable‐based power generation and its distributed nature also reduces
