Electricity

  1. EEA quantified labor, capital, and environmental impacts in a biopower plant
    Extended Exergy Accounting applied to waste-to-biogas facility quantifies environmental impacts, labor value, and capital inputs integrated with thermodynamic efficiency assessment.
  2. China’s electricity and carbon prices show partial coupling
    Study quantifies China's carbon-to-electricity price transmission at 76.5%, identifies barriers to market coupling, and proposes institutional reforms for achieving clean energy targets.
  3. E-commerce is linked to lower urban electricity intensity
    E-commerce reduces electricity intensity in Chinese cities through population and economic agglomeration plus innovation. Government coordination and market efficiency strengthen effects.
  4. Climate extremes are increasing electricity demand in Alberta
    Study shows Alberta's electricity demand increasingly sensitive to temperature extremes, with hot days rising since 1991 and demand peaks doubling in some cities over recent decades.
  5. Integrated desalination-renewable hydrogen system produced electricity and freshwater
    Technoeconomic analysis of integrated double-pass reverse osmosis and renewable hydrogen system for sustainable freshwater and electricity production in remote regions.
  6. Steam-cycle changes improve flexibility in grate-fired plants
    Dynamic assessment of operational flexibility improvements in grate-fired cogeneration plants through steam-cycle and heat-network-based measures without combustion system modification.
  7. Methanol-to-jet had the lowest costs in CO2-based SAF pathways
    Techno-economic assessment of CO2-based sustainable aviation fuel pathways across Europe, USA and Middle East, comparing Fischer-Tropsch, methanol-to-jet and ethanol-to-jet routes.
  8. Predictive price signals may help manage grid bottlenecks
    Explore how predictive price signals can manage grid congestion from distributed energy resources like heat pumps and EV charging, offering scalable alternatives to direct grid control for.
