Abstract:
The problems of operation and development of the energy markets have been gaining importance in the world and require the innovative solutions. Such as the limitations and deficit of energy resources, as also the monopoly of the world market for the energy resources is a global problem. It should be noted that the energy monopolists (USA, Russian Federation) argue that the next 50 years, the traditional energy resources (oil and gas) will account for the largest share of the world energy consumption. According to optimistic forecasts of leading scientists, by 2020 the share of the alternative energy should increase to 12.9 % in the world energy balance.

Abstract:
Fossil fuels have become the main energy source for human after the Industrial Revolution. However, with ever-increasing energy consumption, they are not sustainable in terms of their finite reserves, pollutions to the environment and contributions to climate change. Driven by these problems, the EU and UK have together set a mutual objective to generate renewable energy as 20% of the total energy supply by 2020. This research project, fully funded by Future Energy Source Ltd, is a direct response to the needs of developing novel alternative renewable energy technologies. This project concerns about the research and development of a large scale flat plate solar collector (LSFPSC) with serpentine tubing that can be fully integrated into building envelops. The project work focuses on design improvements for increasing thermal performance, enhancing reliability and minimising costs of the LSFPSC. This is accomplished by employing a three-stage approach combining both experimental testing and simulation studies. An experimental facility was designed and built for testing the LSFPSC prototype with comprehensive monitoring equipment for collecting important data such as temperature and flow rates. The 1st stage experimental results and mathematical analyses showed that the unglazed LSFPSC prototype has an operating efficiency of 28.55%. In the 2nd stage, research was done to propose suitable improvements which were then tested experimentally. These improvements include changing the heat transfer mechanism between the absorber and the circulation system, enhancing the bond conductivity and minimising convective losses. The improved prototype showed increased operating efficiencies of 43.50% (unglazed configuration) and 46.07% (glazed configuration). In the 3rd stage, the experimental and analysis data from the 2nd stage were employed to design TRNSYS simulation that was used to simulate the LSFPSC’s performance using weather data from 36 different locations in 22 countries. The simulation results showed the LSFPSC is capable of producing mean useful output of 1.29 GJ/m2/year (glazed) and 1.00 GJ/m2/year (unglazed). Further economic evaluation showed the LSFPSC has much shorter payback period (2.4 to 6.5 years) than the typical commercial flat plate collectors (8 to 12 years) indicating that the LSFPSC is an economical solution for low/medium temperature applications.

Abstract:

This thesis investigates social impacts of charcoal use in households in the Tanzanian town Babati. In Tanzania a majority of the population use charcoal and firewood as their main energy source. A part from the environmental problems connected to charcoal use; there are also considerable social impacts on women’s daily lives. Cooking and collection of wood fuel are time-consuming and restricts the possibilities for women to work and study. The thesis includes an investigation on how the Tanzanian government tackles problems connected to charcoal use, social as well as environmental. The result shows that the Tanzanian government is working with charcoal related problems to some extent but as previous studies shows there are still more that can be done. The main efforts made concentrate on information campaigns and promotion of more energy efficient equipments. One important problem is however that wood fuel is the cheapest available energy source and hence the incentives to start using other, more sustainable, energy sources are very small. The thesis also investigates possibilities for Babati households to substitute charcoal use with renewable energy sources available in the town. The result shows that the possibilities to use renewable energy currently are very limited and mainly affordable to richer households.

Full text
Abstract:

The primary aim of this study was to develop mesoporous nanocatalysts for (i) hydrogen production via steam reforming of methanol (SRM) in a tubular reactor, and (ii) syngas conversion to hydrocarbons via Fisher-Tropsch synthesis using silicon microchannel microreactors. The mesoporous catalysts for SRM were prepared by an optimized one-pot hydrothermal synthesis procedure. The catalysts were investigated for SRM activity in a packed bed tubular reactor using metals, namely, Cu, Co, Ni, Pd, Zn, and Sn. The metals were incorporated in different supports -MCM-41, SBA-15, CeO2, TiO2, and ZrO2 to investigate the influence of support on catalyst properties. A sharp contrast in catalyst performance was noticed depending on the type of support employed. For example, in SRM at 250 °C, Cu supported on amorphous silica SBA-15 and MCM-41 produced significantly less CO (< 7%) compared to other crystalline supports Cu-TiO2 and Cu/ZrO2 that showed high CO selectivity of ∼56% and ∼37%, respectively. Amongst all the metals studied for SRM activity using 1:3 methanol:water mole ratio at 250 °C, 10%Cu-MCM-41 showed the best performance with 68% methanol conversion, 100% H2 , ∼6 % CO, 94% CO2 selectivities, and no methane formation. Furthermore, 10%Cu-CeO2 yielded the lowest CO selectivity of 1.84% and the highest CO2 selectivity of ∼98% at 250 °C. Stability studies of the catalysts conducted for time-on-stream of 40 h at 300 °C revealed that Cu-MCM41 was the most stable and displayed consistent steady state conversion of ∼74%. Our results indicate that, although coking played an influential role in deactivation of most catalysts, thermal sintering and changes in MCM-41 structure can be responsible for the catalyst deactivation. For monomtetallic systems, the MCM-41 supported catalysts especially Pd and Sn showed appreciable hydrothermal stability under the synthesis and reaction conditions. While bimetallic Pd-Co-MCM-41 and Cu-Ni-MCM-41 catalysts produced more CO, Cu-Zn-MCM-41 and Cu-Sn-MCM-41exhibited better SRM activity, and produced much less CO and CH4. In spite of the improved the stability and dispersion of the monometallic active sites in the support, no noticeable synergistic activity was observed in terms of H2 and CO selectivities in the multimetallic catalysts. For the Fisher-Tropsch (F-T) studies, Co-TiO 2, Fe-TiO2 and Ru-TiO2 catalysts were prepared by the sol-gel method and coated on 116 microchannels (50μm wide x 100μm deep) of a Si-microreactor. The F-T process parameters such as temperature, pressure and flow rates were controlled by an in-house setup programmed by LabVIEW®. The effect of temperature on F-T activity in the range of 150 to 300°C was investigated at 1 atm, a flow rate of 6 ml/min and a constant H2:CO molar ratio of 2:1. In our initial studies at 220 °C, 12%Ru-TiO2 showed higher CO conversion of 74% and produced the highest C2-C4 hydrocarbon selectivity-of ∼11% ethane, 22% propane and ∼17% butane. The overall catalyst stability and performance was in the order of 12%Ru-TiO2>> 12%Fe-TiO2 > 12%Co-TiO2.

Abstract:
Includes bibliographical references.
The combined effect of a number of factors has forced the Government of South Africa to launch and seek to expand the renewable energy sector through the Renewable Energy Independent Power Producer Procurement Programme (REI4P). Such elements include environmental issues, especially climate change; the need to diversify energy sources in order for the country to be energy secure; and the developmental potential that investment in a new industry, in this instance the renewable energy industry, can bring in terms of job creation, economic growth and the exploitation of abundant natural resources. In addition to the REI4P, the Government has also been compelled to seek to expand energy supply in the country, in general, due to the energy crisis, which in turn, is closely associated with a population that is growing at a pace that is much faster than the rate at which energy can be readily supplied. Community Equity Ownership (CEO) or local community ownership is a unique feature of the REI4P that has recently come under close scrutiny due to its requirement for project companies to offer a minimum of 2.5% to 5% shares of their companies to local communities residing within a 50km radius of their renewable energy plants, in an effort to contribute toward their socio-economic development; the challenges presented by community trusts; and the subsequent resistance towards the notion of local community ownership by REI4P project companies. It is the subject of this research because it is still a critical and integral component of the REI4P and challenges associated with its financing have, in the past, jeopardised the accomplishment of the very goals for which it was constituted. The value of Social License to Operate (SLO) is that it can lay the foundation for positive relations to prevail between communities and Independent Power Producers (IPPs) in the pursuit of a viable renewable energy industry and increased energy supply in South Africa. To this end, the study demonstrates that whilst CEO is obligated in the REI4P, it also constitutes SLO because if communities own shares in REI4P projects, they are more likely to cooperate with them. Thus, the CEO, Socio-Economic Development (SED) and Enterprise Development (ED) requirements of the REI4P essentially constitute the SLO ‘building blocks’ for the Programme. Development Finance Institutions (DFIs) have been at the forefront of funding local community ownership, although other financial institutions, including commercial banks xiv have started financing it as well, while requiring guarantees and security from communities, which can offer neither. The continued implementation of the REI4P, as well as the launch of the Baseload IPP Programme and the Medium Term Risk Mitigation Project, will ultimately increase the total number of IPP Programmes in the country and will likely intensify the demand for finances to fund CEO. In view of this, where will the funding for this key aspect of the current and proposed IPP Programmes come from? This study sought to identify alternative funding options for CEO in order to ensure its continuity in both the REI4P and the proposed IPP Programmes. An exploratory research design was pursued for the study in view of data limitations arising from the infancy of the renewable energy sector in South Africa. Moreover, a questionnaire survey was undertaken and a purposive sampling technique was used to interrogate a select group of financial institutions and REI4P Independent Power Producers (IPPs), with a view to determine what their experiences have been in relation to funding CEO, as well as to identify alternative funding options for it, going forward. In this regard, a sample size of 15 was taken out of a combined total of 72 financial institutions and IPPs. Thematic content analysis was subsequently performed to process the data. The main risk associated with financing CEO that was identified by stakeholders has to do with a lack of security in lending to disadvantaged communities because they often have no collateral and can offer no guarantees that demonstrate their capacity to repay debts. Furthermore, the establishment of a Grant Scheme for funding CEO, on the one hand, and a Guarantee and Incentive Programme, on the other, wherein Government stands in as guarantor for communities as they borrow funds to facilitate CEO; were found to be potentially instrumental in widening the pool of funding for CEO. Increased vendor support and more ‘preferential’ loan terms and ‘softer’ loans from DFIs were also identified as critical in the endeavour to increase the funding sources for CEO. Although the use of the Government Pension Fund to warehouse shares on behalf of communities and utilising communal land as equity both hold some promise; they require further research. It is, therefore, concluded that there is potential for alternative funding options for community equity ownership in the REI4P. The study also found that, based on the experiences of survey respondents, there are inadequate sources of finance for CEO, in light of the increasing pressure on available financial opportunities. To this end, the delineation between the xv potential for funding local community shareholding in REI4P projects and actual access to funding is fundamental.

Abstract:
The global warming caused by emission of greenhouse gases, especially CO2 (carbon dioxide) comes from fossil fuels and the destruction of forests through deforestation and burning, has generated major changes in the environment, getting to interfere with natural phenomena. Alternative energy and less polluting sources have been identified as one of the solutions to mitigate the problem. Brazil, to meet the commitment made in Kyoto Protocol and has advanced technology to produce ethanol from sugar cane, has increased its acreage, often replacing traditional cultures, in order to maintain the leadership in the international market. The present study aimed to point out other possible raw materials for production of ethanol in the Northeast region s biodiversity, particularly in Sergipe, with the utilization of waste and underexploited biomass in order to add value, while the folk traditions, as an alternative development for the region within the principles of sustainability. In Sergipe, estimated the potential for ethanol production from cassava wastewater, waste generated in the processing of cassava flourmills in the city of Campo do Brito, we determinated the number of possible micro-distilleries to be operating; verified the production possibility in a 10 years period. It was studied the potential to get ethanol from the waste of sisal fiber came from the most producers municipalities in the State of Bahia, where determinated the number of possible micro-distilleries and economic feasibility. It was estimated the production potential of ethanol from mesquite and the capability to roll out micro-distilleries in the Northeast. According to the results, was found the feasibility of ethanol production from these biomasses available in the Northeast as an alternative source of cleaner energy.
O Aquecimento Global causado pela emissão de Gases de Efeito Estufa, principalmente o CO2 (dióxido de carbono) oriundo dos combustíveis fósseis, e a destruição das florestas através de desmatamentos e queimadas, gerou grandes transformações no Meio Ambiente, chegando a interferir nos fenômenos naturais. Energias Alternativas menos poluentes e renováveis têm sido apontadas como uma das soluções para mitigar o problema. O Brasil, para atender o compromisso firmado no Protocolo de Kyoto e por possuir tecnologia avançada para a produção de etanol a partir da cana-de-açúcar, vem ampliando sua área de plantio, muitas vezes substituindo culturas tradicionais, na tentativa de manter a liderança do mercado internacional. Assim, o presente trabalho objetivou apontar outras matérias-primas possíveis de obtenção de etanol dentro da biodiversidade da região Nordeste, em particular Sergipe, com aproveitamento de resíduos e biomassas subexploradas, no sentido de agregar valor, respeitando as tradições populares, como alternativa de Desenvolvimento para a região dentro dos princípios da sustentabilidade. Em Sergipe, levantou-se a potencialidade para produção de etanol a partir da manipueira, resíduo gerado no processamento da mandioca das casas de farinha do município de Campo do Brito; determinou-se o número de microdestilarias possíveis de serem implantadas; verificou-se a viabilidade econômica no período de 10 anos de produção. Fez-se um estudo voltado para a obtenção do etanol a partir do resíduo do sisal oriundo do beneficiamento da fibra nos municípios de maior produção localizados no Estado da Bahia, no qual determinou-se o número de microdestilarias possíveis de implantação e a viabilidade econômica. Levantou-se o potencial energético para produção de etanol a partir de algaroba e a capacidade de implantação de microdestilarias na região Nordeste.

Abstract:

Lipid-producing microalgae are a feedstock for commercial products such as nutritional supplements, aquatic animal feed, and biofuels. Unlike most algal phyla, the diatoms (Bacillariophyta) characteristically produce storage lipids throughout their entire lifecycle. In this study, lipids were extracted via chloroform-methanol and quantified as percent dry weight, &mgr;g/mL, and pg/100 &mgr;m3 and then analyzed for a phylogenetic signal by comparing the variability between lineages to the variability within lineages for each metric. These ten taxa were then paired with data gathered from the literature and examined for a phylogenetic signal using previously described methods. In the first analysis, there was greater variability between than within lineages during stationary growth when using percent dry weight as a metric. In the second analysis, a statistically significant phylogenetic signal was detected for nutrient-deplete growth experiments when examining the genus-level phylogeny (P = 0.013).

Lain, Kayley Christina. "Supporting energy transitions and miscanthus program development at the University of Iowa." Thesis, University of Iowa, 2017. https://ir.uiowa.edu/etd/5544.

Full text
Abstract:
Miscanthus is a highly productive, low-input biofuel crop that supports agricultural diversification with improved performance for climate commitment, energy security, and water quality over first generation biofuels. Despite its high performance, no local or regional markets for the feedstock have formed in North America, and current climate-based productivity assessment methods lack the information farmers and decision-makers need to establish commercial scale bioenergy markets, programs, and thermal co-firing plans. This study develops a Miscanthus Suitability Rating and a transferable field-scale siting method, applied at 10 m resolution across the State of Iowa to assess miscanthus production potential and identify individual farms that are highly suitable for large-scale miscanthus cultivation while maintaining a majority of existing row cropping acreage. Results show that highly suitable fields within 50 miles (84 km) of each of Iowa’s coal-fired electrical generating units (EGUs) can displace up to 43% of current coal consumption. Every EGU in Iowa has land resource to produce local miscanthus to co-fire with other solid fuels at industry-leading levels without significantly impacting local row crop production. Seven of the state’s smaller facilities could even operate exclusively on local miscanthus with advancements in densification technology. The energy evaluation tool developed in this work estimates the energy return on investment (EROI) of Iowa miscanthus for existing thermal generation facilities between 37 and 59, depending on transportation requirements and chemical field applications. This transition would diversify local agribusiness and energy feedstocks, reduce greenhouse gas emissions and provide a sustainable, dispatchable, in-state fuel source to complement wind and solar energy.

Resumo: As tecnologias de energias renováveis são um exemplo de tecnologia que tenta estabelecer em um mercado já consolidado e com um forte contexto industrial baseado em tecnologias já existentes para fontes de energia convencionais. Neste contexto se destaca o papel das políticas públicas que afetam a demanda por essas tecnologias. Desde que a Lei no 9.991/2000 foi publicada, as empresas do setor de energia elétrica brasileiro começaram um grande esforço para fortalecer suas áreas de P&D. Deste modo, propõe-se analisar o esforço realizado pelas concessionárias de energia elétrica brasileiras para o desenvolvimento e adoção de tecnologias de novas fontes alternativas de energia. A questão central do trabalho é verificar se os projetos de P&D ANEEL em tecnologias de novas fontes renováveis no segmento de geração e transmissão de energia elétrica estão relacionados ao aprendizado do uso dessas novas tecnologias de energia renovável, pelas empresas de energia elétrica. O estudo empírico se baseou na análise de uma amostra de 55 projetos de P&D ANEEL das empresas Eletrobras, que são responsáveis pela maior parcela nos mercados de serviços de geração e transmissão brasileiros. A participação de projetos de P&D ANEEL em fontes alternativas é de cerca de 9% do seu total de número de projetos. A maior concentração desses projetos recai em Bioenergia, e em Energia Eólica, seguindo-se os grupos de projetos nas demais Fontes Alternativas com a seguinte ordem: Hidrogênio, Fotovoltaica, Maremotriz e Pequenas Centrais Hidrelétricas (PCH). A maior incidência de projetos em bioenergia na região Norte e em energia eólica na região Nordeste revelaram uma clara vocação dessas duas regiões para estas novas fontes de energia. Verificou-se uma baixa participação nos projetos de P&D de empresas tipicamente fornecedoras do setor elétrico. A análise da relação entre o desenvolvimento da P&D em novas fontes renováveis e o aprendizado das EELB mostrou que a maioria dos projetos é relacionada ao aprendizado de uso da tecnologia pelas concessionárias
Abstract: Renewable energy technology is an example of the technology which attempts to weigh in a consolidated market and inside a strong industrial context based on existent technologies for conventional sources of energy. The role of public politics that affects the demand for these technologies is highlighted in this context. Since the law number 9.991/2000 was published, companies from the Brazilian electrical energy sector started a great deal of effort to strengthen its areas of Research & Development. Thus this study aims to analyze the efforts done by the Brazilian concessionaries of electric power for the development and adoption of technologies in new sources of alternative energy. The core objective of this paper is to verify if ANEEL's Research & Developing project's in technology of new renewable sources in the segment of generation and transmission of electrical energy are related in learning the usage of these new technologies of renewable energy, by electrical energy companies. The empirical research is based on the analysis of 55 ANEEL's R&D projects of Eletrobras companies that are responsible for most of the market share of Brazilian services of generation and transmission. ANEEL's R&D projects participation in alternative sources is around 9% of its projects. Most of its projects are about Bioenergy and on Wind energy, followed by groups of projects on the several Alternative Sources in the following order: Hydrogen, Photovoltaic, Tidal Power and small hydro. The bigger incidence of projects on bioenergy are on the North and about wind energy in the Northeast showed a clear regional vocation of these locations for these new sources of energy. It was verified a low participation of R&D projects of companies typically suppliers of the electrical sector. The analysis of the relationship among the development of R&D of renewable sources and the learning of EELB showed that most of the projects are related to learning the usage of technology by the concessionaires

Abstract:
Energy is essential for economic development, food production and global security. According to the UN, the world will need at least 45% more energy by 2030. It is well known that resources we are using today for the energy production have very negative impact on the planet, especially for the climate change. Alternative resources that are renewable and don't have CO2 emission also have own disadvantages. For example, solar panels are quite expensive, depend on climate, need a lot of place and also there is a big issue with utilization of panels in the end of their life cycle. Wind farmas and hydroelectric power stations are located to far from consumers and transmission looses are very high in these cases. Indeed, in future scientists will solve these problems, but so far we have to deal with them. It means that the best solution would be to combine alternative energy resources and energy saving.

Abstract:
Indonesia’s energy demand has been growing rapidly driven by increasing population, urbanization, and rapid economic growth. With increasing energy demand, the emissions associated with the energy sector continue to increase. With the gradual increase in demand and dominant share of fossil fuels in the energy mix, implementing the energy efficiency measures is crucial for Indonesia to achieve its energy and climate goals. From the policy perspective, National Energy plan of Indonesia aims to achieve higher levels of energy efficiency to reduce the overall energy intensity. Indonesia also has commitments to reduce greenhouse gas emissions and achieve SDG targets. This report reviews the current status of energy demand and energy efficiency in Indonesia and evaluates the potential of implementing energy efficiency measures and fuel switching options to achieve future low carbon energy future. Long term energy model of Indonesia is modelled using the open-source modelling tool OSeMOSYS. Different scenarios have been developed to investigate the outcome of implementing energy efficiency and fuel switching measures in the Residential, Commercial, and Transportation sectors. The results are presented in terms of reduction in total final energy use, greenhouse gas emissions, and local air pollution. Cost-Benefit analysis of the applied measures present their financial feasibility. With the deployment of efficient appliances, up to 30% electricity savings can be achieved in the residential and commercial sector. Vehicle electrification can contribute towards reduction in annual energy use by 48% by the end of modelling period. Measures in the residential and commercial sector directly contribute towards emission reductions. Vehicle electrification does not show proportionate reduction in emissions compared to energy use reduction due to high carbon intensity of the electricity grid. However, significant reduction in local air pollutants can be achieved. Cost benefit analysis shows that deployment of efficient appliances is financially feasible with maximum 2 years of payback period. On the other hand, successful deployment of electric vehicles will require tangible support from government due to its high price premium compared to conventional vehicles. Energy efficiency measures and fuel switching also contribute substantially to achieving Sustainable Development Goal 7.3. In conclusion, this study presents a set of technically and economically feasible energy system development options for Indonesia. From the modelling perspective, this study identifies ways to implement demand side management measures in the energy supply modelling system OSeMOSYS.
Indonesiens energibehov har ökat snabbt drivet av ökande befolkning, urbanisering och snabbekonomisk tillväxt. Med ökande energibehov fortsätter utsläppen i energisektorn att öka. Medden gradvisa ökningen i efterfrågan och den dominerande andelen fossila bränslen ienergimixen är genomförandet av energieffektivitetsåtgärderna avgörande för att Indonesienska uppnå sina energi- och klimatmål. Ur politiskt perspektiv syftar Indonesiens nationella energiplan till att uppnå högre nivåer av energieffektivitet för att minska den totala energiintensiteten. Indonesien har också åtaganden att minska utsläppen av växthusgaser och uppnå SDG-mål. Denna rapport granskar den aktuella statusen för efterfrågan på energi och energieffektivitet i Indonesien och utvärderar potentialen för att genomföra energieffektivitetsåtgärder och alternativ för bränsleomkoppling för att uppnå framtida energiförbrukning med låg koldioxid. Indonesiens långsiktiga energimodell modelleras med hjälp av open-sourcemodelleringsverktyget OSeMOSYS. Olika scenarier har utvecklats för att undersöka resultatet av genomförande av energieffektivitet och bränsleomkopplingsåtgärder inom bostads-, kommersiellt och transportsektorn. Resultaten presenteras i termer av minskning av den totalaslutliga energiförbrukningen, växthusgasutsläpp och lokal luftföroreningar. Kostnadsnyttoanalys av de tillämpade åtgärderna utgör deras ekonomiska genomförbarhet. Med användning av effektiva apparater kan upp till 30% elbesparing uppnås i bostads- och affärssektorn. Fordonselektrifiering kan bidra till minskning av den årliga energiförbrukningen med 48% i slutet av modelleringsperioden. Åtgärder inom bostads- och kommersiell sektor bidrar direkt till utsläppsminskningar. Fordonselektrifiering visar inte proportionell minskning av utsläpp jämfört med energiförbrukningen på grund av hög kolintensitet i elnätet. Emellertid kan en betydande minskning av lokala luftföroreningar uppnås. Kostnads för delningsanalys visar att distribution av effektiva apparater är ekonomiskt möjlig med maximalt 2 års återbetalningsperiod. Å andra sidan kommer framgångsrik distribution av elfordon att kräva konkret stöd från regeringen på grund av dess höga prispremie jämfört med konventionella fordon. Energi effektivitetsåtgärder och bränsleomkoppling bidrar också väsentligt till att uppnå mål för hållbar utveckling 7.3. Sammanfattningsvis presenterar denna studie en uppsättning tekniska och ekonomiskt genomförbara energisystemutvecklingsalternativ för Indonesien. Från modelleringsperspektivet identifierar denna studie sätt att implementera hanteringsåtgärder på efterfrågesidan i modelleringssystemet för energiförsörjning OSeMOSYS.

Abstract:

Nitrogen deficiency is the most common and widespread nutritional deficiency affecting plants worldwide. Ectomycorrhizal symbiosis involves the beneficial interaction of plants with soil fungi and plays a critical role in nutrient cycling, including the uptake of nitrogen from the environment. The main goal of this study is to understand how limiting nitrogen in the presence or absence of an ectomycorrhizal fungi, Laccaria bicolor, affects the health of aspen trees, Populus tremuloides. Under limited nitrogen conditions, aspen tree growth and development is reduced, and mycorrhizal symbiosis may significantly improve plant biomass, providing sufficient nitrogen is available. The results of biochemical analysis also indicate that the supply of carbon to fungus associated with aspen roots is reduced as a result of aspen utilizing more sugar resources for the production of sucrose and starch within shoot tissues. Identification of metabolic pathways in aspen tree roots revealed that carbohydrate and nitrate metabolism was impacted by changing environmental conditions, including interactions with the fungi.

Abstract:

A study has been conducted to assess the possibilities to introduce dead cattle organs as the raw material for biogas generation at the rural household level in Bangladesh. At the same time, the present energy situation in Bangladesh is highlighted. The actors in the energy sector have been identified. The energy policy of Bangladesh is not transparent and there seems to be no energy strategy for the country. Possibilities of other renewable sources of energy are also discussed. Biomass fuels comprise the main source of energy for the rural people and the major share of energy use is consumed after cooking and household lightning. Enormous amount of labor is spent in gathering and collecting of fuel wood and agricultural residues that reduces productivity among women and young children. Besides, biogas is generated from agricultural residues and animal excreta in Bangladesh. Tremendous pressure on rural forests for fuel wood is increasing and environmental degradation is occurring. Agricultural lands are losing vital nutrients as people are using crop residues and animal excreta for energy. Under present condition, the possibilities of adopting biogas technology and dead cattle organs as the raw materials to generate biogas is analyzed in terms of availability of the raw material. Sustainable development using biogas is also considered. And lastly, some recommendation is suggested, based on the current energy situation of Bangladesh.

Resumo: Este trabalho utilizou o método de análise hierárquica (AHP, amplamente aplicado ao estudo de questões energéticas) e entrevistas para identificar as principais barreiras ao desenvolvimento eólico na Argentina e no Brasil, segundo a percepção de especialistas de ambos os países, com o desenvolvimento de uma metodologia que pode ser aplicada ao estudo de outras tecnologias emergentes de geração. A metodologia indicou haver grande concordância entre os resultados das entrevistas e da aplicação do AHP, além de cada ferramenta complementar as principais contribuições da outra. Muitas barreiras identificadas resultam da formatação dos setores elétricos, identificando-se, contudo, um maior consenso sobre as barreiras entre especialistas argentinos. Este trabalho identificou também a tendência de manutenção do desenvolvimento da geração eolioelétrica nos dois países, apesar das barreiras levantadas e da percepção de implantação de medidas paliativas no sistema elétrico argentino, com a falta de medidas mais abrangentes
Abstract: This study used the analytic hierarchy process (AHP, largely used in the study of energy matters) and interviews to identify the main barriers to the development of wind power in Argentina and Brazil, according to the perceptions of specialists from both countries, with the development of a methodology that may be applied to the study of other emerging power generation technologies. The methodology indicated a great consistency between results from interviews and the application of the AHP, besides each tool complementing the other's main contributions. Many identified barriers result from the configuration of the power sectors, although a greater consensus on barriers was seen among Argentinean specialists. This study also identified the tendency of maintenance of the development of wind power generation in both countries, in spite of the surveyed barriers and the perception of the implantation of palliative measures to the Argentinean power sections, in detriment of more comprehensive measures

Globalization has led to the development of emerging markets and economies. With economic expansion around the globe, there is a greater energy demand to sustain this growth. Increasing energy demand has resulted in increase in energy prices and increase in emission levels. While conventional energy technologies have advantage in terms of established infrastructure and lower cost, they are inefficient and rely heavily on fossil fuels. Conventional energy technologies alone cannot sustain and cater to the evolving energy market's needs of higher efficiency, lower emissions and resources conservation. Renewable energy solutions and alternative energy technologies like distributed generation need to be developed to meet this energy demand, conserve the definite resources and reduce emissions. But at the moment, alternative energy technologies due to lack of infrastructure, development cost and regulations are limited in their applications. Therefore in the near term, we recommend that they strategically position themselves in the market with niche and right fit opportunities. We also recommend that they need to utilize the development dollars effectively in integrating technology development with their product development activities and develop durable cost effective products. They also need to develop key partnerships and integrate value across their development and fulfillment chains. Strategic positioning, value chain integration and key execution in development with mature processes will aid alternative energy technologies to overcome the existing market barriers and move towards rapid commercialization.

Abstract:
The renewable sources of energies are shown as an interesting alternative to minimize the problem of the electric power lack faced by the rural man, mainly in the remote places where the difficulties of distribution of the electrification lines, above all in the economical aspect, they are big being shown unviable. The energy eolic besides other purposes, can be taken advantage of in bombs of water for irrigation. Like this, enormous amount of energy consumed for bombeament of water can be saved by the introduction of bombs of Catavento, because it is a consolidated technology, no pollutant and through studies, it was already proven that the bombeament of water using the speed of pumping of Catavento is very economical. This Dissertation intends to present, starting from a concept of maintainable development anchored in seven dimensions of the sustentabilidade (ecological, economical, social, space, cultural, technological and politics), a project of generators eolics of small load, developing to leave of that project, a group of criteria capable to contribute for evaluation of the viability of the same. It is also presented an example of project of energy eolic, that seeks to reduce the energy dependence in the agriculture and to contribute for the superation of the current problems of provisioning of the energy section. Finally, these criteria are tested to analyze the viability of this alternative project and the applicability of this technology, with the purpose of increasing the exploration of that type of alternative energy, promoting the maintainable development and benefitting the small producer. As result, was ended that the volume of water pumped by Catavento is enough for small overhead irrigations, storage in reservoirs for a subsequent use for gravity or to have his/her direct use for the human consumption or of animals always depending on the height manometric and of the amount of water requested by the user. .
As fontes renováveis de energias mostram-se como uma alternativa interessante para minimizar o problema da falta de energia elétrica enfrentada pelo homem rural, principalmente nos locais remotos onde as dificuldades de distribuição das linhas de eletrificação, sobretudo no aspecto econômico, são grandes mostrando-se inviáveis. A energia eólica além de outros propósitos pode ser aproveitada em bombas d'água para irrigação. Assim, enorme quantidade de energia consumida para bombeamento d'água pode ser poupada pela introdução de bombas de Catavento, pois é uma tecnologia consolidada, não poluente e através de estudos, já foi provado que o bombeamento d'água usando a velocidade de bombear do Catavento é muito econômico. Esta Dissertação pretende apresentar, a partir de um conceito de desenvolvimento sustentável ancorado em sete dimensões da sustentabilidade (ecológica, econômica, social, espacial, cultural, tecnológica e política), um projeto de geradores eólicos de pequeno porte, desenvolvendo a partir desse projeto, um conjunto de critérios capazes de contribuir para avaliação da viabilidade do mesmo. É também apresentado um exemplo de projeto de energia eólica, que visa reduzir a dependência energética na agricultura e contribuir para a superação dos atuais problemas de abastecimento do setor energético. Por fim, estes critérios são testados para analisar a viabilidade deste projeto alternativo e a aplicabilidade desta tecnologia, com o propósito de aumentar a exploração desse tipo de energia alternativa, promovendo o desenvolvimento sustentável e beneficiando o pequeno produtor. Como resultado, concluiu-se que o volume de água bombeado pelo Catavento é suficiente para pequenos sistemas de irrigação, armazenamento em reservatórios para uma posterior utilização por gravidade ou ter o seu uso direto para o consumo humano ou de animais dependendo sempre da altura manométrica e da quantidade de água solicitada pelo usuário.

Abstract:
Thesis (PhD (Electrical Engineering))--Cape Peninsula University of Technology, 2018.
Electrical energy can be easily used and converted to other forms of energy for various applications. Technological advancement increases the dependency on electricity to a great extent. Various internal and external factors are responsible for the bad quality of power in power systems. The performance of the system is greatly affected by the presence of harmonics, as well as voltage and frequency variations, which leads to the malfunctioning of the device and decline of power quality and supply at load side. The reactive power compensation is carried out for better power quality. The literature survey is done to find the best and efficient scheme for reactive power compensation and mitigation of various power quality problems. The devices which are used to measure various power quality factors are discussed. Various mitigating schemes are surveyed in order to compensate reactive power and to improve the power quality at the distribution end. The integration of the most widely used renewable energy, wind energy in the distribution system creates technical issues like stability of the grid, harmonic distortion, voltage regulation, active and reactive power compensation etc. which are restricted to IEC and IEEE standards. One of the topics this thesis addresses is regulation in the reactive power generated along with voltage regulation by using an effective power electronics device known as a STATCOM. The main power quality factors like overvoltage and voltage flickers are mitigated by establishing STATCOMs in small wind farms. The wind farms are equipped with three wind turbines. These three wind turbines found in the wind farm can be operated together or one after another with an introduced delay. A glitch in even a little piece of a power grid can result in loss of efficiency, income and at times even life. In this manner, it is basic to outline a system which can distinguish the faults of the power system and take a faster response to recover it back to required reactive power. Two devices STATCOM and D-STATCOM are used for this purpose in this thesis. The D-STATCOM circuit and operating principle are also discussed in thesis. Different topologies of D-STATCOM discussed with their benefits and shortcomings. The voltage, current and hybrid technologies of D-STATCOM are also discussed.

The world's energy problems contribute continuously to searching, developing and implementing new types of energy sources. Moreover the scientists predict that in the future, traditional energy sources, like coal or crude oil, will run out. That’s why, it is necessary to find and develop new sources of energy. It is compatible with the theory of sustainable development, which says, that we have to allow the next generations living and environmental conditions at least such as, we have received.

Abstract:
The EU transport sector is currently extremely dependent on foreign oil and the import bill for this fuel was in 2011 approximately € 210 billion. The European Commission (EC) claims that this dependency will eventually affect the member states’ economic security and mobility as oil is a finite resource. At the same time, the transport sector needs to reduce its CO2 emissions with 60% until 2050. Therefore in 2013, the EC proposed the “Directive on the Deployment of Alternative Fuels Infrastructure”, which purpose is to create road fuel infrastructure for the alternative fuels electricity, hydrogen and, the main focus of this report, natural gas. The EC believes that infrastructure acts as a major barrier for the adoption of natural gas vehicles (NGV), which in the EU has been extremely limited. The scientific community agrees that infrastructure is an important barrier, but not the sole decider for the market penetration of NGV’s. Empirical evidence claims that in order for large-scale adoption to occur, natural gas needs to be priced at least 40% lower than conventional fuels (gasoline, diesel) and the payback period (the added investment cost of an NGV) must be lower than four years. Historical data shows that if these criteria are not met this will lead to market failure, even if the adequate infrastructure is in place. The two criteria are examined in this report in the four of the largest EU countries: Germany, UK, France and Spain whom together account for a majority of all vehicles registered in 2012. Italy was excluded as it has already has a well-developed NGV fleet. Two car models from different price ranges in NGV, gasoline and diesel versions were studied: the Fiat Punto and the Audi A3 Sportback. Payback periods where calculated based on yearly average annual distances travelled per country, fuel prices, vehicle fuel efficiency and the added investment cost for an NGV compared to gasoline and diesel vehicles. In order to compare fuel prices default energy content values were used to convert CNG into gasoline and diesel equivalents. As the price of CNG is heavily dependent on favorable taxation one needs to question the economic sustainability, and therefore this study also analyses the future price difference between gas and the conventional fuels using a supply and demand model with oligopoly conditions. This model was complemented with the 4 A’s method, which are Availability, Accessibility, Affordability and Acceptability. Results show that the conditions for NGV’s compared to diesel vehicles are optimal in Germany, UK and Spain, as they all have fuel price difference of minimum 40% and payback periods significantly below 4 years. As a majority of all new vehicles registered in the EU are diesel models this will have a strong positive impact on the NGV market. The conditions for the gasoline comparisons are suboptimal, or slightly inconclusive as the payback periods in a few cases are above, or just below four years. As default values have been used during calculations the numbers are sensitive to change and simply too uncertain to draw any solid conclusions. The price differences between CNG and gasoline are within the criteria level of 40%. The price difference analysis between oil and natural gas shows great uncertainty, as there are many factors involved, such as environmental and geopolitical. A potential factor that could decouple prices is “fracking” of domestic EU shale gas resources, but this seems unlikely to happen due to environmental, social and economical reasons. Imported US LNG could have a similar effect but it might be exported east in order to meet the increasing demand from countries in Asia pacific. In conclusion, if the Directive on the Deployment of Alternative Fuels Infrastructure was implemented we would likely see a moderate to high market penetration of NGV’s, mostly due to their comparative advantage towards diesel vehicles. As gasoline meets the fuel price difference criteria this will also have a positive effect on the NGV market albeit limited by questionable payback periods.

Abstract:
The purpose of this paper, “Role of Nuclear Energy in Japan Post – Fukushima: Alternatives and their Impact onJapan’s GHG Emission Targets”, is to emphasize that Japan’s expected new energy policy must be in accordancewith its existing environmental targets with regards to GHG emissions. The main research question is how Japan cancontinue to meet its emissions targets in the aftermath of the Fukushima crisis, where public opinion—gaugedthrough newspaper articles—in Japan has now become outright anti-nuclear, and Japan has become compelled toadopt a new nuclear-free energy policy built around renewable energy. However, given the extremely low share ofrenewable energy in Japan’s existing energy mix, an extremely pro-nuclear government, an influential energy lobbyand an overall lack of suitable infrastructure; this goal does appear ambitious. The framework of analysis in thispaper will be of ‘sustainable development’, entailing an analysis of the three pillars of sustainability – environment,economy and social factors. In addition to these factors, security of supply will also be considered as a vital measureto determine the policy’s overall sustainability. The paper will show that while it is indeed possible for Japan tomeet its GHG emissions targets by replacing nuclear energy with renewable energy, Japan’s ability to deployrenewable energy at such a large scale remains inadequate. Through a comparison with the German experience inrenewable energy, any withdrawal from nuclear energy without properly propping up renewable energy will onlyresult in a greater shift towards primary fossil fuels – jeopardizing Japan’s emission targets, security of supply andincurring heavy import costs to its economy. The result of this analysis is to suggest measures such as an expansiveFeed-in tariff system, grid integration and stability and investment in R&D as major components of a focused andlong term energy policy up till 2030, to promote renewable energy. This paper will also posit steps required toimprove the safety and efficiency of its nuclear reactors during the interim period when renewable energy grows inits share of Japan’s energy mix.

Mestrado em Economia e Política da Energia e do Ambiente
A digestão anaeróbia é um processo que acontece naturalmente e através do qual a matéria orgânica é decomposta num gás, a que se dá o nome de biogás, e num substrato orgânico que pode ser separado numa fracção líquida e numa fracção sólida. Toda esta matéria pode ser aproveitada. O biogás, devido à presença de metano, pode ser utilizado para produção de energia. A matéria orgânica final está estabilizada e é um produto agrícola valioso. Este método de valorização dos resíduos impede que estes provoquem danos ambientais importantes. Estes benefícios ambientais são externos ao mercado e, por isso, não têm um valor económico. Este facto aliado ao preço elevado da tecnologia torna o investimento num digestor pouco atractivo. O Estado pode corrigir esta falha do mercado e permitir o aproveitamento de todo o potencial nacional. Esse potencial de produção de biogás é calculado para cada uma das fontes de resíduos biodegradáveis. Neste trabalho são desenvolvidos os parágrafos anteriores e na última parte são enumerados os instrumentos que podem ser adoptados para estimular o desenvolvimento desta tecnologia. Destacam-se as políticas energética, ambiental e agrícola.
The anaerobic digestion is a process which occurs naturally and through which the organic matter is decomposed into a type of gas, called biogas, and into an organic substratum that can be separated into a liquid fraction and into a solid fraction. Ali this matter can be used. The biogas, due to the presence of methane, can be used to produce energy. The final organic matter is stabilized and it is a valuable product to use in agriculture. This method of waste valorisation prevents these from provoking considerable environmental damages. These environmental benefits are externai to the market and for that they have no economic value. This fact allied to the high price of technology makes the investment in a digester unattractive. The state can correct this market imperfection and allow the full use of the whole national potential. That biogas production potential is calculated for each one of the biodegradable waste sources. In this paper the previous paragraphs will be further developed and in the last part are listed the several Instruments that can be used to stimulate the development of this technology. The energy, environmental and agricultural policies are enhanced.

Abstract:
Interest in BiCMOS technology has been generated recently due to the potential advantages this technology offers over conventional CMOS which enjoys widespread use in today’s semiconductor industry. However, before BiCMOS can be readily adopted by the VLSI community, an understanding of the design issues and tradeoffs involved when utilizing it, must be achieved. The principal focus of this research is to move towards such an understanding through the means of analytical modeling and circuit simulation using PSPICE [1]. The device chosen for the modeling approach is the basic BiCMOS Inverting Buffer Driver. The model yields equations that characterize output rise and fall transients and quantify the delays incurred therein. At the end of the analysis, we have a composite set of delay equations that are a measure of the total gate delay and reflect the importance of individual device and circuit parameters in determining this delay. Further investigations conducted to determine the influence of device, circuit and process parameters on BiCMOS, indicate that this technology is far more resilient to variations in such parameters than CMOS. At the end of this research, we are able to make a definitive judgement about BiCMOS performance and its superiority over CMOS in the switching speed domain.

Abstract:
This thesis develops the notion of the bioenergy transition as the long-term transformation of biomass from a local resource into a global commodity. An historical assessment is combined with interdisciplinary analysis that focuses especially on liquid biofuels and highlights the environmentally innovative case of bioethanol. The bioenergy transition is investigated from several different perspectives: technical-economic, socio-economic, socio-technical and political-economic. Linkages across different levels from household to global are analysed in relation to the effectiveness of bioenergy policies. In addition to studies at household and national levels, a North-South perspective is taken by including two major regions: the European Union (EU) and the Southern African Development Community (SADC). The relation of EU biofuels policy to international climate and trade regimes is assessed to show how regional-global linkages affect policy design and implementation. Household bioenergy markets in developing countries are poorly articulated and difficult to link to other sectors; a detailed choice model in Ethiopia showed that product-specific factors should be evaluated to inform design of programmes and policies. Municipal and sub-national markets for bioenergy have been successfully linked to national policies to coordinate supply and demand in Brazil and Sweden. Regional market development for biofuels has great potential in southern Africa but regional-national linkages currently remain unexploited. National level efforts remain quite important in terms of energy security and environmental innovation, as evidenced in Brazil, Malawi and Sweden. Biofuels sustainability criteria in the EU Renewable Energy Directive (EU-RED) were evaluated in relation to the international climate and trade regimes and were found to shift some costs onto developing countries. One of the mechanisms for assuring biofuels sustainability is bilateral agreements, which remain untested but potentially effective. Cross-level linkages were often unexploited in the cases studied; national approaches cannot easily capture complementarities across sectors and scales in biophysical and economic terms. Linking biofuels markets across different levels from household to global through regional development policies and specialised governance mechanisms could help to steer the bioenergy transition towards sustainability.

Resumo: Nos últimos anos, várias discussões e análises sobre um maior uso de gás natural no Peru foram realizadas. No início de 2011, durante os debates presidenciais, este era um item da agenda, e a priorização do desenvolvimento do mercado interno de gás, em vez de sua exportação foi o tema central. A presente tese analisa as alternativas de uso do gás natural nos setores de transporte, residencial, terciário, industrial de grande porte e de geração elétrica no Peru, assim como avalia o impacto da sua penetração na substituição de combustíveis derivados do petróleo e a possibilidade de produção de eletricidade através da cogeração. Para tanto, foram efetuadas uma análise da matriz energética peruana, uma revisão das reservas e infraestrutura da indústria do gás natural, para uma avaliação complementar e como ferramenta de comparação foram calculados os indicadores de sustentabilidade energética do País. Além disso, foi realizada uma revisão das metodologias existentes e empregadas para este tipo de estudo, além de definidos a abrangência e os cenários deste trabalho. Dos cenários avaliados, o tendencial- moderado seria o mais provável de acontecer e se viabilizar. Este mostra que o uso do gás natural aumentará de 3.280 Mm3, em 2008, para 6.295 Mm3, em 2020, melhorando, assim, a distribuição de sua utilização nos diferentes setores analisados, não sendo utilizado majoritariamente no setor de geração elétrica, como ocorre na atualidade. Por outro lado, a maior penetração deste energético permitirá substituir combustíveis derivados do petróleo, como o óleo Diesel, óleo combustível, gasolina e GLP, e, consequentemente, reduzir as emissões de dióxido de carbono. Os resultados mostram a existência de reservas para um maior desenvolvimento do mercado interno do gás natural no curto e médio prazo, mas, no futuro, é necessário continuar avaliando as reservas e o uso do gás (incluindo a exportação), considerando a garantia de seu fornecimento no longo prazo, descobertas de reservas e novos projetos para sua utilização
Abstract: In recent years there have been several discussions and analysis on a greater use of natural gas in Peru. This was part of the agenda during the presidential debates in early 2011. During these debates, the importance of developing a domestic demand for natural gas rather than gas exports was the central theme of discussion. This thesis analyzes the alternative for the use of natural gas in sectors such as transportation, residential, commercial, large-sized industry and power generation in Peru. Moreover, it evaluates the impact of its penetration as a replacement for oil products and the possibility of production of electricity through cogeneration. For this, an analysis on the Peru's energy matrix was conducted. Also, the current reserves and infrastructure of the natural gas industry were shown and additionally as a tool for comparison were calculated energy indicators for sustainable development in the country. In addition, a review of existing and used methodologies for this type of study were performed, and the scope and scenarios of this work were defined. The moderate trend scenario would be more feasible and likely to occur in comparison to all the scenarios evaluated in this study. This scenario shows that the use of natural gas will increase from 3.280 Mm3 in 2008 to 6295 Mm3 in 2020, which will improve the distribution of it in the different sectors that were analyzed, and reduce its use in the power generation sector where natural gas is mainly being utilized as of today. The greater penetration of natural gas would reduce the use of oil products such as Diesel oil, residual oil, gasoline and LPG, and thereby reduce CO2 emissions. The results show the existence of reserves for further development in the domestic gas market in the short and medium term, but in the future it will be necessary to continue evaluating the reserves and consumption of the natural gas in order to guarantee its supply for the long term, the discovery of new reserves, and the development of new projects for its use

Abstract:
Nas últimas décadas, o tema "meio ambiente" tem se tornado alvo cada vez maior de discussão, dado a grande dependência, em escala mundial, da energia gerada por combustíveis fósseis, os quais são finitos. Dessa forma, buscam-se alternativas à geração de energia hoje predominante focadas na sustentabilidade e na utilização de fontes limpas e renováveis. Nesse contexto, o estímulo ao uso de fontes de energia renováveis tem crescido não só no Brasil como no exterior. Dentre as diversas possibilidades temos, a energia eólica que, dado o estágio atual de maturidade de sua indústria, a diminuição dos preços dos aerogeradores à medida que a tecnologia evolui e os incentivos dados pelo governo federal à construção de usinas eólicas, tem aumentado ano a ano sua participação na matriz energética brasileira, atualmente em 1,78%, com perspectiva de chegar aproximadamente em 9% até 2021, segundo dados da ANEEL e da ABEEólica (Associação Brasileira de Energia Eólica). Além disso, é mister ressaltar que a utilização em larga escala da matriz eólica para a produção de energia elétrica tem o objetivo de diminuir a dependência da produção de energia por meio de combustíveis fósseis, os quais não são renováveis e são extremamente poluentes. Assim, tendo em vista o aumento da competitividade da geração de energia eólica no Brasil nos últimos anos, objetiva-se, por meio da presente monografia, analisar inicialmente a atual indústria de geração de energia elétrica sob o novo marco regulatório e, em seguida, a especificidade da indústria de geração de energia eólica, a potencialidade de geração de energia eólica no Brasil, a regulação específica incidente sobre tal geração de energia, em consonância com o novo marco regulatório do setor elétrico e os incentivos para sua produção no Brasil.
