Mitigation strategies for transitioning towards ‘net-zero’ energy systems in ...IEA-ETSAP
The document outlines research using the TIMES model to study mitigation strategies for transitioning India's energy system towards net-zero emissions by 2050, comparing a current policy scenario resulting in over 100 Gt of CO2 emissions to lower emission scenarios enabled by increasing renewable energy, nuclear power, and carbon capture while reducing costs and maintaining supply. The results indicate pathways to reduce 2050 emissions to under 1 Gt through accelerated electrification, decarbonizing electricity and other sectors, and cumulative emissions by over 50% compared to current policies.
The JRC develops models to analyze the energy system and related sectors. It uses several models together including JRC-EU-TIMES for energy system optimization, Dispa-SET for power system unit commitment, and others for demand, resources, etc. JRC-EU-TIMES models pathways for low-carbon technologies meeting Energy Union objectives. It was improved with updated renewable potentials, power-to-gas, biomass integration, and sensitivity analysis of policies and technologies. Dispa-SET optimizes power dispatch and was integrated into JRC-EU-TIMES through statistical analysis of various power system configurations.
Accounting for changes in investment flows in a soft-linked hybrid modelIEA-ETSAP
The IntERACT model was developed to identify cost-efficient policies to further Denmark's transition to a low-carbon economy by 2050 using a hybrid approach. It soft-links a technology-explicit bottom-up TIMES-DK energy system model with a top-down general equilibrium economic model. The models are iteratively solved to account for feedback between energy prices and investments. Energy service demands and fuel costs from TIMES-DK are transferred to the CGE model, while adjusted demands are fed back. This allows investment flows resulting from changes in energy prices to be considered. The presentation provides an overview of the model setup, linking methodology, and progress implementing the automated iterative linking between models.

Techno-economic and environmental implications of transportation decarbonization pathways for New York City using City-based Optimization Model for Energy Technologies (COMET)
Dr. Ozge Kaplan, US Environmental Protection Agency
This document summarizes a proposed low energy demand pathway for Ireland to meet climate goals. It finds that reducing energy consumption through lifestyle changes, efficiency improvements, and economic restructuring could decrease Ireland's energy needs without compromising quality of life. Specifically, the pathway models decreasing transport demand through shorter travel, public transit, and active mobility. It also models retrofitting existing housing, building new ultra-efficient homes, cutting industrial energy intensity, and limiting commercial and public space. Preliminary results suggest this low energy demand scenario could lower emissions and costs compared to a business-as-usual pathway, reducing the need for negative emissions technologies to meet climate targets. The transformation requires targeted policy support but could have co-benefits like improved health,
Extracting Insights from Many Scenarios: Examples from FACETSIEA-ETSAP
1) The Framework for Analysis of Climate-Energy-Technology Systems (FACETS) is a multi-region US energy system model that runs many scenarios to extract insights.
2) Running numerous scenarios that vary key dimensions like fuel prices, technology costs, and policies allows identification of competing technologies, marginal technologies, and how policy responses are affected by other assumptions.
3) Interpreting multiple scenarios reveals how emissions and technology outcomes depend on underlying relationships within the energy system and identifies combinations of dimensions where a policy may be ineffective, costly, or non-binding.

Evaluation of the role of energy storages in Europe with TIMES PanEUIEA-ETSAP
This document summarizes the results of scenario analyses conducted using the TIMES PanEU energy system model and ESTMAP storage database to evaluate the role of energy storage in Europe. The analyses found that increased electricity demand and electrification of the energy system are needed to meet EU GHG reduction targets. Additional electricity storage capacity investments from 2030 onward are also needed to integrate more variable renewable energy from wind and solar. First investments are in diabatic CAES and battery storage, shifting later to pump storage and adiabatic CAES as costs decrease. Energy storage, along with other flexibility options, helps reduce GHG emissions compared to scenarios relying more on natural gas storage.

ENABLING EV CHARGING WHILE PREVENTING GRID OVERLOADSiQHub
This document discusses battery energy storage systems for electric vehicle charging stations. It describes the challenges of high power requirements for EV charging and how battery energy storage systems can help overcome grid limitations by storing energy and supplying power to charging stations. A case study is presented comparing the costs of investing in grid reinforcement versus installing a battery energy storage system. The document concludes by providing examples of Rolls-Royce's battery energy storage system projects around the world.
This document summarizes research on connecting electric vehicles to electricity networks. It discusses battery charging behavior at home and during trips. A model found drivers try to avoid fully depleting batteries, with average inefficiencies of 1.5-1.8 kWh. Scenarios for Nagoya, Japan showed charging electric vehicles could increase peak demand but discharging vehicles at work could cut 0.1 GW of daytime demand. The research evaluates optimizing battery size, fast charger deployment, and using vehicle-to-grid to reduce peak electricity loads.
This project aims to develop a wireless electric vehicle charging system with high efficiency (>85%), high power transfer (over 6.6 kW), and good position tolerance. The system achieved power transfer of 6.6 kW with 85% efficiency at a 20 cm coil gap in initial testing. Future work will reduce the coil size and increase power transfer capability to 19.2 kW while maintaining performance. Validation through building and testing 5 electric vehicles integrated with the wireless charging system is also planned.

The SHAMS initiative in Dubai aims to deploy widespread solar PV generation by encouraging households and buildings to install solar panels. This presents both opportunities and challenges, including upgrading Dubai's power grid and assessing the economic feasibility of PV systems at different property scales. Financial modeling shows the key parameters affecting PV viability are electricity tariff prices and the size of the PV system. While Dubai's real estate market is currently declining, studies in the US found properties with solar panels sold for higher prices and more quickly, suggesting SHAMS could help accelerate Dubai's real estate recovery.

Microgrids, Electric Vehicles and Wireless ChargingJeffrey Funk
These slides use concepts from my (Jeff Funk) course entitled analyzing hi-tech opportunities to analyze how electric vehicles will become economic feasible if the right design decisions are made to benefit from the falling costs of electronics. One key decision is the use of micro-grids to enable direct charging of the batteries, which is more efficient. A second key decision is the number of recharging stations and thus the frequency by which users can recharge their vehicles. More frequent recharging means smaller batteries can be used and thus the slow rate of improvements for energy storage densities can be overcome. A third key decision is wired vs. wireless charging. Wireless charging eliminates the time consuming maintenance and fitting problems of wires and thus enables faster hookups. It also benefits from the rapidly falling cost of electronics; the falling cost of ICs, power electronics, and thin-film coils means that wireless charging is likely to become economically feasible in the near future and allow the problem of low energy storage densities of batteries to be solved.
This document discusses key topics related to electric vehicles including batteries, costs, charging, battery swapping, battery life, materials, converting internal combustion engine vehicles to electric vehicles, and the future of electric vehicle technology. It addresses common problems with electric vehicle adoption such as battery weight, costs, and energy density. It also provides information on lithium-ion battery chemistry and performance, how to calculate the cost per kWh of energy usage, factors that influence battery life, and considerations for battery charging standardization.
Hosted by KTN, this event brought together the projects that were funded as part of the £30 million UK government funding to support and develop vehicle-to-grid (V2G) technologies - aiming to enable electric cars and other vehicles to deliver electricity back to the smart grid, to light homes and power businesses.
A great opportunity for local councils, fleet owners (looking to go electric) or those in the Energy and Infrastructure sectors.
The event looked at:
- Benefits and learnings from the V2G cohort projects;
- V2G Grid connections (as it was noted that the G99 process could be elongated at times)
- Update from Ofgem (including a Q&A session)

Applying science fiction to approach the futureIEA-ETSAP
The document discusses using science fiction to think about future energy systems. It proposes applying system analysis models to explore different technology combinations that meet future energy needs. However, it notes that these models do not consider social factors like behavior and justice. It suggests using genres like climate fiction and solar punk to bring more collective narratives about energy futures. Specifically, it advocates using a hackathon approach to gather knowledge and create imaginary fiction stories around different future scenarios to help build worlds and consider the human aspects of energy system design.

It provides background on CCS, explaining that carbon dioxide is captured from industrial sources and injected underground for permanent storage. It then discusses four main types of potential subsurface leakage: 1) capillary leakage if seal rocks have larger particles, 2) exceeding the fracture gradient of the seal, 3) leakage along or across faults, and 4) leakage from new or legacy boreholes. The document analyzes case studies of both CCS and carbon capture, utilization, and storage (CCUS) projects to illustrate examples of each leakage type. It concludes that CCS/CCUS has a low overall risk but is not
Long-Term Decarbonization Pathways In Emerging Economies: Insights From 12 Mo...IEA-ETSAP
This document summarizes the preliminary results of a study comparing long-term decarbonization pathways in 12 developing countries and 2 regions modeled using the Electricity Planning Model. Key findings include:
1) Ambitious decarbonization would require annual investments of 1-3% of GDP, compared to around 1% for business-as-usual scenarios.
2) Renewables, led by solar, would dominate capacity additions. Conventional plants would operate more flexibly to integrate variable renewables.
3) Achieving deep decarbonization would significantly increase energy costs but carbon prices of $20-120/t could enable cost-effective emissions reductions.
Improving the viability of probiotics by encapsulation methods for developmen...Open Access Research Paper
The popularity of functional foods among scientists and common people has been increasing day by day. Awareness and modernization make the consumer think better regarding food and nutrition. Now a day’s individual knows very well about the relation between food consumption and disease prevalence. Humans have a diversity of microbes in the gut that together form the gut microflora. Probiotics are the health-promoting live microbial cells improve host health through gut and brain connection and fighting against harmful bacteria. Bifidobacterium and Lactobacillus are the two bacterial genera which are considered to be probiotic. These good bacteria are facing challenges of viability. There are so many factors such as sensitivity to heat, pH, acidity, osmotic effect, mechanical shear, chemical components, freezing and storage time as well which affects the viability of probiotics in the dairy food matrix as well as in the gut. Multiple efforts have been done in the past and ongoing in present for these beneficial microbial population stability until their destination in the gut. One of a useful technique known as microencapsulation makes the probiotic effective in the diversified conditions and maintain these microbe’s community to the optimum level for achieving targeted benefits. Dairy products are found to be an ideal vehicle for probiotic incorporation. It has been seen that the encapsulated microbial cells show higher viability than the free cells in different processing and storage conditions as well as against bile salts in the gut. They make the food functional when incorporated, without affecting the product sensory characteristics.
Kinetic studies on malachite green dye adsorption from aqueous solutions by A...Open Access Research Paper
Water polluted by dyestuffs compounds is a global threat to health and the environment; accordingly, we prepared a green novel sorbent chemical and Physical system from an algae, chitosan and chitosan nanoparticle and impregnated with algae with chitosan nanocomposite for the sorption of Malachite green dye from water. The algae with chitosan nanocomposite by a simple method and used as a recyclable and effective adsorbent for the removal of malachite green dye from aqueous solutions. Algae, chitosan, chitosan nanoparticle and algae with chitosan nanocomposite were characterized using different physicochemical methods. The functional groups and chemical compounds found in algae, chitosan, chitosan algae, chitosan nanoparticle, and chitosan nanoparticle with algae were identified using FTIR, SEM, and TGADTA/DTG techniques. The optimal adsorption conditions, different dosages, pH and Temperature the amount of algae with chitosan nanocomposite were determined. At optimized conditions and the batch equilibrium studies more than 99% of the dye was removed. The adsorption process data matched well kinetics showed that the reaction order for dye varied with pseudo-first order and pseudo-second order. Furthermore, the maximum adsorption capacity of the algae with chitosan nanocomposite toward malachite green dye reached as high as 15.5mg/g, respectively. Finally, multiple times reusing of algae with chitosan nanocomposite and removing dye from a real wastewater has made it a promising and attractive option for further practical applications.
Optimizing Post Remediation Groundwater Performance with Enhanced Microbiolog...Joshua Orris
Results of geophysics and pneumatic injection pilot tests during 2003 – 2007 yielded significant positive results for injection delivery design and contaminant mass treatment, resulting in permanent shut-down of an existing groundwater Pump & Treat system.
Accessible source areas were subsequently removed (2011) by soil excavation and treated with the placement of Emulsified Vegetable Oil EVO and zero-valent iron ZVI to accelerate treatment of impacted groundwater in overburden and weathered fractured bedrock. Post pilot test and post remediation groundwater monitoring has included analyses of CVOCs, organic fatty acids, dissolved gases and QuantArray® -Chlor to quantify key microorganisms (e.g., Dehalococcoides, Dehalobacter, etc.) and functional genes (e.g., vinyl chloride reductase, methane monooxygenase, etc.) to assess potential for reductive dechlorination and aerobic cometabolism of CVOCs.
In 2022, the first commercial application of MetaArray™ was performed at the site. MetaArray™ utilizes statistical analysis, such as principal component analysis and multivariate analysis to provide evidence that reductive dechlorination is active or even that it is slowing. This creates actionable data allowing users to save money by making important site management decisions earlier.
The results of the MetaArray™ analysis’ support vector machine (SVM) identified groundwater monitoring wells with a 80% confidence that were characterized as either Limited for Reductive Decholorination or had a High Reductive Reduction Dechlorination potential. The results of MetaArray™ will be used to further optimize the site’s post remediation monitoring program for monitored natural attenuation.
Evolving Lifecycles with High Resolution Site Characterization (HRSC) and 3-D...Joshua Orris
The incorporation of a 3DCSM and completion of HRSC provided a tool for enhanced, data-driven, decisions to support a change in remediation closure strategies. Currently, an approved pilot study has been obtained to shut-down the remediation systems (ISCO, P&T) and conduct a hydraulic study under non-pumping conditions. A separate micro-biological bench scale treatability study was competed that yielded positive results for an emerging innovative technology. As a result, a field pilot study has commenced with results expected in nine-twelve months. With the results of the hydraulic study, field pilot studies and an updated risk assessment leading site monitoring optimization cost lifecycle savings upwards of $15MM towards an alternatively evolved best available technology remediation closure strategy.
