Transient energy inefficiencyCanadian industriesCarbon taxCO2 emissionsCanada has joined the few countries that have adopted carbon tax in an effort to mitigate CO2 emissions. Since consumption of fossil fuels is the primary source of CO2emissions, the key mechanism......
(2011a) review the regulatory strategies for the promotion of renewable energy sources. They classify the policies as regulatory or voluntary, direct (immediate stimulation) or indirect (long-term), and price-driven or quantity-driven. Previous research shows that in Germany, to achieve ambitious ...
Some countries have limited natural domestic potential for the development of clean energy, such as the required levels of sunshine or wind, suitable land for new projects, or abundant reserves of minerals such as copper and nickel that are critical to the energ...
"Deployment of solar energy can be used as a near-term decarbonization strategy, with other higher-investment energy projects such as wind and hydropower planned for the medium term," the report said. "Currently, the region utilizes large utility-scale solar plants and smart solar grids to deca...
At the same time, state-supported hasty expansion of electric fleet may entail not only benefits for the environment, but also a serious challenge for the energy system. Thus, according to Huang et al. (2013), the penetration of EVs may cause a “peak on peak” effect, potentially causing...
The RNN outperforms the FNN but costs about a factor of 2 longer in training time. Furthermore, the neural network-based models provide more accurate forecasts than traditional stochastic models. Overall, the RNN appears to be the best suited for potential energy inflows forecasting and therefore...
are not considered for vehicle-to-grid as they have a low storage potential due to low capacities. On average, just 5% of the theoretical capacity is lost due to battery degradation by 2050. These losses vary between 7% in India and 4% in RoW due to differences in regional factors such ...
et al. Zeolitic imidazolate framework ZIF-67 grown on NiAl-layered double hydroxide/graphene oxide as cathode catalysts for oxygen reduction reaction in microbial fuel cells. International Journal of Hydrogen Energy, 2022, 47(85): 36283-36293. DOI:10.1016/j.ijhydene.2022.08.201 101. Lang, Z...
The emerging models provide a long-term analysis of both solar resource and energy produced by the different power plant scenarios, including the associated uncertainties. This analysis helps establish the solar potential for electricity generation in Qatar, and can support the design and decision-...
Short-term forecasting, used for unit obligation, spare planning, keeping plan management, and scheduling for energy networks or wind systems, is defined as occurring within 72 h. The forecast range of 24–72 is because the time step is typically thought of as hourly [3]. Making an accurate...
