1. Variation management for cost-efficient integration of variable renewable electricity
Abstract : The aim of this work is to improve our understanding of how wind power and solar photovoltaics (PV) can be integrated into the electricity system in a cost-efficient manner. For this, a techno-economic cost-minimising model of the electricity system is used for a set of case studies. READ MORE

4. Operability Considerations for Retrofit Design of Industrial Process Energy Systems
Abstract : Energy efficiency is crucial to reduce fuel usage and related emissions in industry. In energy-intensive process industry, the use of heat accounts for a large share of the total energy use and a reduction of the heating and cooling demand is thus important for decreasing energy use.

5. Evaluation of Modular Thermally Driven Heat Pump Systems
Abstract : The building sector accounts for approximately 40% of primary energy use within the European Union, therefore reductions in the energy use intensity of this sector are critical in decreasing total energy usage. Given that the majority of energy used within the built environment is for space conditioning and domestic hot water preparation, prudence would suggest that decreasing primary energy used for these end purposes would have the biggest overall environmental impact.
