How do seasonal and technical factors affect generation efficiency of photovoltaic power plants?
Abstract Regions with limited space for constructing renewable power generation systems need to maximize electricity generation by optimizing the operational efficiency of existing plants and selecting an optimal location for the new construction of PV power plants with favorable weather…
Power Generated from Waste Branches and Kudzu Vines
The Korea Institute of Energy Research develops technology to transform discarded forestry and agricultural waste into solid-type biofuel for power generation. Developing technology to upcycle non-edible waste into carbon-neutral fuel is crucial for constructing a circular bioeconomy as well as coping with climate crisis.
Reducing power plants’ thirst
Researchers at Sandia National Laboratories are helping the largest power plant in the United States identify the most efficient and cost-effective strategies to reduce water use.They developed a first-of-its-kind comprehensive system dynamics analysis that can show power plants with wet cooling systems how it can save them money.
