Winners and losers of end-use flexibility in the Norwegian energy systemIEA-ETSAP
This document summarizes the findings of a study analyzing the impact of end-use flexibility on the Norwegian energy system. The study used an optimization model to evaluate two scenarios: Energy Nation with decentralized solutions and Nature Nation with centralized solutions. The study found that end-use flexibility from electric vehicle charging, hot water tanks, and batteries can reduce energy system costs by 8-5 billion euro annually by 2050 while lowering peak demand. However, it also reduces income for power producers by 0.5-1 billion euro. End-use flexibility shifts electricity use to times of high solar production and low prices, benefiting buildings and international electricity trade while negatively impacting power producers.
Global power demand is growing faster than demand for fossil fuels and shows few signs of moderating according to the International Energy Agency. Electricity demand is projected to grow 84% between 2009 and 2035, more rapidly than gas, coal, or oil. All sectors will see higher electricity demand, with non-OECD countries accounting for over 80% of the increase. Decarbonizing the energy system to limit global warming will require scaling up all low-carbon electricity sources like renewables, nuclear, and integrating them into grids through measures like storage and interconnection to ensure stable supplies.

NanoGrids for Home Application in a Power Cloud Framework Alessandro Burgio
Thanks to recent innovations driven by European Union and national policies, lately it has been possible to see the realization of effective renewable energy technologies, for both large and small-scale use, alongside considerable cost reductions for customers. As a result, businesses and households can increasingly produce and consume, some or all, their own electricity, either instantaneously or in a deferred manner through decentralized storage, behind the connection point with the grid (i.e. the meter). In such a way, it is possible to maximize self-consumption in order to increase their efficiency of energy use and reduce their exposure to electricity prices. In the paper, the use of the so-called Nanogrid for Home Application is proposed to achieve the result of the self-consumption maximization. Moreover, a framework of exchanging energy among Prosumers (Power Cloud) is illustrated to promote the use of Nanogrids for Home Applications.

The document presents indicators for energy efficiency and renewable energy for Lebanon. It summarizes that data collection was difficult due to a lack of available information. Key sectors like industry and services lack consumption data breakdown. Lebanon is highly dependent on imported energy and fossil fuels. The report recommends the government establish systematic data collection and support increased renewable energy adoption.
This document discusses the importance of improving the efficiency of switch mode power supplies (SMPS) used in telecommunications and industrial equipment. SMPS are crucial as they efficiently convert incoming power sources like AC grids or batteries into regulated DC power needed to operate electronic circuit boards. With growing technological demand, improving SMPS efficiency by even 1% can result in significant cost savings for operators with large networks. The document also mentions new technologies like gallium nitride that promise further efficiency gains for SMPS. Overall, optimizing SMPS efficiency across all loads is seen as an important requirement given rising energy costs and environmental concerns.
This document provides an overview of renewable energy development and power converters for renewable applications. It discusses:
1) Worldwide installed renewable energy capacity has significantly increased between 2000-2020, led by growth in solar, wind, and hydropower.
2) For wind power, the state-of-the-art has transitioned to larger turbine sizes with full-scale power converters and variable speed control. Photovoltaics have seen significant capacity growth and fastest installation rates in recent years.
3) Power converters are crucial for renewable energy systems, with various topologies discussed for different applications like wind turbines and photovoltaics. Reliability and lifetime are important considerations.
- Total electricity consumption in Finland decreased by 2% in 2023 compared to 2022, totaling 80 TWh.
- Industrial electricity consumption decreased the most, falling 6% to a total of 33 TWh, with most of the decrease coming from the forest industry.
- Net imports of electricity decreased significantly by 86% (10.7 TWh) compared to 2022, totaling only 1.8 TWh in 2023 as exports increased and imports from Nordic countries decreased.
- CO2 emissions from power generation were down 38% from 2022 and have decreased 87% since 2010 due to replacement of fossil fuels by renewable sources like wind and hydro power.
The electricity grid was designed over 100 years ago to always match supply and demand, but this leads to inefficiencies. Grid 2.0 aims to have demand follow supply by incentivizing consumers to shift their usage away from peak times, through time-of-use pricing and technologies that enable automated demand response. As renewable sources like wind power increase to 40% of generation, demand flexibility will be crucial to accommodate the intermittent nature of these resources and reduce curtailment.

- Demand side management (DSM) through demand response could help integrate intermittent renewable generation like wind power by shifting consumption from peak to off-peak periods.
- Red Eléctrica de España is developing data and methodologies to estimate the benefits of DSM, including reduced energy losses, spinning reserves, and CO2 emissions.
- Preliminary estimates for 2020 in Spain show DSM from households could reduce energy consumption by 15 million MWh, CO2 emissions by 261,000 tonnes, and lower the system peak by 2,300 MW.
This document discusses California's plan to meet its renewable energy and zero net energy building targets through significantly expanding distributed photovoltaic (PV) systems, with a focus on rooftop solar. It estimates California will need over 15,000 MW of new rooftop residential and commercial PV by 2020 to achieve these goals. It also outlines the economic and environmental advantages of distributed PV compared to large remote solar projects requiring new transmission infrastructure. Key challenges remain in fully aligning the utilities' business model with this distributed energy future.
Micro-grids supply energy to remote areas using multiple distributed energy sources and manage supply and demand complexities. They reduce transmission losses and relieve stress on the main grid. Various renewable technologies can be used including solar, wind, biomass and waste heat recovery. Energy storage helps provide steady backup power and balances intermittent renewable output. Communication controls coordinate supply and demand. Micro-grids provide reliable off-grid electrification with less need for grid upgrades.

It examines the proposed reaction of water and aluminum-gallium fuel pellets and identifies issues with the claims that it is 50% energy recycling efficient, environmentally sound, and cheap. It analyzes the aluminum fuel cycle and efficiency. It also looks at issues with the gallium production amount needed and the reaction mechanism between aluminum, gallium and hydrogen.
The Economics and Finance of Offshore WindEamon Keane
The document summarizes the economics and financing challenges of offshore wind power in Europe. It finds that offshore wind is significantly more expensive than both onshore wind and natural gas currently. Offshore wind projects also face difficulties obtaining financing from private investors due to low expected returns. Government subsidies have been critical in supporting development of offshore wind so far, but these subsidies may not be sustainable long term. A consistent price on carbon, such as a carbon tax, would help make offshore wind economically viable compared to fossil fuel alternatives.
The Effect of Wind Generation on Combined Heat and PowerEamon Keane
This document examines the effect of increasing levels of wind generation on combined heat and power (CHP) systems. It finds that higher wind penetration reduces the viability of CHP by decreasing the difference between electricity market prices and natural gas fuel costs. However, the negative impact of wind on CHP could be counteracted by imposing capacity charges based on the volume of electricity imported rather than the capacity of the grid connection.
This document discusses the effect of wind generation on combined heat and power (CHP) plants in Ireland. It finds that high levels of wind penetration can negatively impact the profitability of CHP in two key ways:
1) Increased wind lowers wholesale electricity prices during times of high wind output, reducing the revenue of CHP plants. Wholesale prices were found to be 21% lower on average under a scenario with 30% wind versus 10% wind.
2) Lower wholesale prices lead to a 19% reduction in gross savings for a model 1MWe CHP plant under high wind (30%) compared to low wind (10%).
3) However, the negative impacts of wind can be partially
Rare earth elements and the green economyEamon Keane
