Influences of small hydroelectric power plants on homogenization of the ichthyofauna in a tropical river

The native fishes of the Neotropical region have been heavily impacted by the construction of reservoirs that block the rivers in different degrees. Small Hydroelectric Power Plants (SHPP) have been an alternative way to take advantage of small electricity production potential, with low cost. However, there is no basis in the belief that SHPP have less deleterious effects on river habitat than large hydropower plants. The aim of this study was to evaluate eventual changes in the ichthyofauna because of the influences of SHPP in the middle reaches of a tropical river in south-eastern Brazil. The raised hypothesis is that SHPP change the ichthyofauna composition and increase the taxonomic and functional similarities (homogenization). Fish collections were carried out quarterly at six locations along a 20 km stretch of the Paraiba do Sul River, before and after the construction of the SHPP. The fish community structure changed between the two periods, with a decrease in the fish numerical abundance, whereas the species richness did not change. Sensitive species with specialized feeding habits (namely, Hartia loricariformis, Steindachineridium parahybae, Hypomasticus mormirops, Characidium alipioi, Chyphocharax gilbert, Corydoras nattereri and Pogonopoma parahybae) occurred only before the SHPP, being replaced by several species of Characiformes, among them four of genus Astyanax (namely, A. giton, A. hastatus, A. taeniatus, and A. intemedium) that are tolerant and omnivores; however, most of functional traits were maintained. The taxonomic dissimilarity increased significantly, whereas the functional dissimilarity did not differ between the two periods. The hypothesis of ichthyofauna homogenization was not confirmed in this study, probably because of the short time period since the SHPP construction.

Perspectives of chalcopyrite-based CIGSe thin-film solar cell: a review

Solar photovoltaic (PV) is empowering, reliable, and ecofriendly technology for harvesting energy which can be assessed from the fact that PV panels with total electricity generation capacity of 505 GW have been installed by the end of 2018. Thin-film solar cells based on copper indium gallium selenide (CIGSe) are promising photovoltaic absorber material owing to an alternative to crystalline silicon (c-Si)-based solar cells because of the huge potential for low-cost solar electricity production with minimal usage of raw materials. The efficiency record of 23.4% was achieved recently in CIGSe solar cells, which was comparable to c-Si solar cells (27.6%). The manufacturing cost of $0.34/W is expected for 15% efficient CIGSe module. The present review article discusses the perspectives of CISe/CIGSe-based thin-film solar cells with the focus on absorber material. Different vacuum and non-vacuum techniques for fabricating these materials are discussed along with the operation of solar cells and their manufacturability. The working mechanism of CIGSe solar cells with the characteristic features of the open-circuit voltage and current density as well as the factors influencing the efficiency in different fabrication techniques are reviewed. Moreover, some strategies toward the improvement of solar cells performance contemplating modified deposition are reviewed. Furthermore, how these strategies can be executed in order to make it cost effective methods is also discussed in detail. Prevailing constrictions for the commercial maturity are deliberated, and future perspectives for improvement at lab as well as industrial scalabilities are outlined.

Improving Electricity Production in Solar Chimney Power Plants with Sloping Ground Design: An Extensive CFD Research

Unlike other solar energy systems, solar chimney power plants (SCPPs) allow power output even when there is no sun. SCPPs are promising with their simple structure and 24-hour electricity production potential. Massive pressure tower in the system maintains continuous energy generation irrespective of climatic conditions. Solar energy harnessed by the huge collector area is transmitted to the gorund material for sensible or latent heat storage purpose, and this stored energy during daytime yields to enhanced thermal and buoyant effects even after sunset. SCPPs are also in the centre of interest owing to their eco-friendly operation not causing any CO2 emission. Design aspects in SCPPs are widely studied numerically by researchers. However, geometric design factors are merely analysed for collector and chimney, and very few attempts are done for the ground design. In the present work, a new design for ground is proposed in order to improve the energy stored in the ground material, and the upward movement of the air flow in the system from collector to chimney by changing the ground geometry. The upward movement of the air under the collector is enhanced with the new design created by inclining the ground at a distance of 21 m from the chimney inlet to a certain distance from the collector inlet. ANSYS WORKBENCH based CFD analysis is carried out based on the geometric dimensions of the Manzanares pilot plant. Analyses are based on a 90° 3D CFD model for the purpose of time saving in iterations. The CFD model is supported by RNG k-? turbulence and DO (discrete ordinates) solar ray tracing models. After CFD results are verified with the experimental data, simulations are repeated for different designs and the ideal design is achieved. It is observed that the maximum air flow velocity, which is 14.202 m/s on the horizontal ground for the reference case, is improved by 34.1% in the new design to 19.046 m/s. In addition, it is seen that the power output of the reference case (54.333 kW) is enhanced by 23.04% to 66.855 kW.

Wind Energy Potential for Electricity Production in Hatay, Turkey

In this study, we examine Turkey’s Hatay city and some of its districts (Belen, Antakya, Iskenderun, Samandag) and we assessed the possibility of electricity production from wind power plants. The area of Hatay is 5559 km2 that is located in the southernmost part of Turkey and east of the Mediterranean Sea. The accumulated data obtained from Belen- Hatay wind speed data are shown. The seasonal cumulative probability distributions of wind speeds for Belen-Hatay are analysed in the paper. The wind speeds in summer are higher than in the other seasons. As a result, the Belen-Hatay region is a very favourable place in terms of wind and has high wind energy potential. In this region, the hourly wind speeds are higher than 5 m/s and about 70% of occasions at 10 m height above ground level. It is also known that for nine months of the year, the average wind speeds are more than 5 m/s. On the other hand, average monthly wind energy productions are higher than 200W/m2 for eight months of the year.

Bioconversion on Wastewater of Soybeans using Microbial Fuel Cell

Microbial fuel cell (MFC) is a technology developed to obtain new sources of renewable energy to produce electricity. It can be an alternative for wastewater treatment and bioenergy producers of renewable electricity. This method requires bacteria to convert substrate in wastewater into electrical energy. The mechanism of MFC were oxidation of substrate by bacteria to produce electrons and protons at the anode. The proton in anode chamber passes through a membrane exchange to the cathode chamber, however the electrons couldn’t through. It caused accumulation of electron in anode chamber and then both of electrode had a potential difference, so electron in anode chamber passed through membrane exchange to cathode chamber. In this study used dual-chambers reactors with each compartment having 8 cm × 10 cm × 10 cm of dimensions and 5 mm of thickness. This study was subjected to evaluate the performance of MFC in soybean washing wastewater treatment with bacteria of EM4 to analyze the potentials production of electricity energy. The focus of this study was to evaluate the effect of time to electricity. MFC system was observed for 40 hours, measurement of voltages and electric currents performed every 4 hours. The results showed that there was potential of electricity production from soybean wastewater treatment by MFC. The maximum electricity reached in soybean wastewater media were voltage 441 mV (at 24 h), the electric currents 170 µA and the power density 51, 35 mW/m2 (at 24 h after acclimatization). Increasing of time effect to decreasing of electricity produced.Keywords: bioenergy, electricity, microbial fuel cell, membrane, wastewater soybean

A renewable energy mix to supply small islands. A comparative study applied to Balearic Islands and Fiji

Abstract Power plants supplied by renewables are expanding around the world, increasing the sustainability of the energy sector. In this context, small islands are heavily reliant on fossil fuels. However, this paper shows that the same problem can be found also in small islands belonging to developed countries. To increase the energy sustainability of small islands, the authors assembled a simplified mathematical approach to evaluate the potential electricity production, exploiting the local available energy sources: solar, wind and sea wave. The mathematical model requires few information in input, such as climatic data about the local energy sources and technical features on the selected technologies. Commercial technologies have been chosen for the utilization of solar and wind sources. The authors consider also sea wave, a promising renewable energy source especially for small islands. Since sea wave has not been successfully exploited around the world, the authors suggest an innovative technology, under development at the laboratory of University of Palermo. This innovative device is based on linear generators and floating buoys. The proposed energy mix can be applied to several small islands spread worldwide. With this regard, the paper analyses the Balearic Islands and Fiji, which are two archipelagos, with several differences, if economy and population statistics are considered. A strong energy dependence on fossil fuels affects both the case studies. A preliminary sizing of a renewable energy mix is reported for both archipelagos, using the mathematical model proposed by authors. The environmental benefits are estimated, considering the avoided CO2 emissions as indicator. An economic analysis is finally performed.

ENSPRESO - an open, EU-28 wide, transparent and coherent database of wind, solar and biomass energy potentials

Data on the potential generation of energy from wind, solar and biomass is crucial for analysing their development, as it sets the limits on how much additional capacity it is feasible to install. This paper presents the methodologies used for the development of ENSPRESO, ENergy System Potentials for Renewable Energy SOurces, an EU-28 wide, open dataset for energy models on renewable energy potentials, at national and regional levels for the 2010–2050 period. In ENSPRESO, coherent GIS-based land-restriction scenarios are developed. For wind, resource evaluation also considers setback distances, as well as high resolution geo-spatial wind speed data. For solar, potentials are derived from irradiation data and available area for solar applications. Both wind and solar have separately a potential electricity production which is equivalent to three times the EU's 2016 electricity demand, with wind onshore and solar requiring 16% and 1.4% of total land, respectively. For biomass, agriculture, forestry and waste sectors are considered. Their respective sustainable potentials are equivalent to a minimum 10%, 1.5% and 1% of the total EU primary energy use. ENSPRESO can enrich the results of any energy model (e.g. JRC-EU-TIMES) by improving its analyses of the competition and complementarity of energy technologies.

Thermodynamic and economic comparison of photovoltaic electricity generation with and without self-cleaning photovoltaic panels

In this study, thermodynamic and economic analysis of a photovoltaic electricity generation system (PVEGS) with and without self-cleaning panels is reported. In the first part, thermodynamic analyses are used to characterize the performance of the system. In the second part, the economic comparison of photovoltaic electricity generation with and without self-cleaning panels is carried out for all climate zones of Iran. A computer simulation program using EES software is developed to model the solar photovoltaic electricity generation system in four different climates of Iran. The solar photovoltaic system provides electricity during the year. Our goal is to point out the potential of electricity production using conventional panels compared to self-cleaning panels under the same condition. The analysis involves the specification of the effects of varying solar radiation intensity (SRI) on the electricity generation rate of the photovoltaic electricity generation system. The average output power values for the solar photovoltaic system with self-cleaning panels and the solar photovoltaic system without self-cleaning panels are found to be 50767 and 48120 kWh/year, respectively, which means that the solar photovoltaic system with self-cleaning panels has the higher performance than the solar photovoltaic system without self-cleaning panels in all climate zones of Iran.

A SCALABLE APPROACH FOR SPATIO-TEMPORAL ASSESSMENT OF PHOTOVOLTAIC ELECTRICITY POTENTIALS FOR BUILDING FAÇADES OF ENTIRE CITIES

Abstract. This paper describes results on the development of a completely FOSS-based approach assessing the electricity production potential by building façade PV. To estimate solar irradiation the hemispherical view-shed approach described by (Fu, 1999) was used. Combining it with an approach to dissect walls into regular 3D hyper-points (1-meter spacing) the sun visibility and the sky viewshed throughout the year are calculated. This results in global irradiation per hyper-point. To estimate the economic potential of each façade element an economic model was developed. This is driven by technical parameters of the installation, such as module efficiency, installation and maintenance costs, figures about payback tariffs and envisaged module lifetime. The overall result is a city-wide PV suitability and economic potential map of every building façade.The processing is based on a city model in CityGML format using the 3DCityDB database and the spatial processing functionalities of PostGIS. A set of Python scripts has been developed as a central control instance and manage parallel processing of queries against the database to achieve scalability and improved performance. We run a case study with approximately 7000 single façade elements which are processed. Since we implemented a parallel computation of the façades running on an 80-core dedicated server machine, the completion for an entire city of about 3 million hyper-points points uses a decent amount of time for the given size of the data set. The chosen approach is highly scalable, robust and can be easily implemented through standard tools and libraries.

A high-resolution geospatial assessment of the rooftop solar photovoltaic potential in the European Union

Rooftop solar photovoltaic (PV) systems can make a significant contribution to Europe's energy transition. Realising this potential raises challenges at policy and electricity system planning level. To address this, the authors have developed a geospatially explicit methodology using up-to-date spatial information of the EU building stock to quantify the available rooftop area for PV systems. To do this, it combines satellite-based and statistical data sources with machine learning to provide a reliable assessment of the technical potential for rooftop PV electricity production with a spatial resolution of 100 m across the European Union (EU). It estimates the levelised cost of electricity (LCOE) using country-specific parameters and compares it to the latest household electricity prices. The results show that the EU rooftops could potentially produce 680 TWh of solar electricity annually (representing 24.4% of current electricity consumption), two thirds of which at a cost lower than the current residential tariffs. Country aggregated results illustrate existing barriers for cost-effective rooftop systems in countries with low electricity prices and high investment interest rates, as well as provide indications on how to address these.

Economic and environmental impact evaluation of various biomass feedstock for bioethanol production and correlations to lignocellulosic composition

This paper investigates the economic and environmental feasibility of bioethanol production from Mexican lignocellulosic biomasses including wood and grass species, bagasse and crop residues. The minimum ethanol selling price (MESP) ranged between 2.05 $/gal (wheat straw) and 2.87 $/gal (coffee pulp). Based on MESP, wheat straw, rubber wood and woody biomass were at the top of the economic ranking. The environmental ranking showed that husks, woody residues and coffee pulp are the best feedstocks. Correlations to estimate ethanol yield, net electricity production, MESP and global warming potential (GWP) based on biomass composition were developed. Correlations showed that a ratio of lignin (wet basis) to the sum of cellulose and hemicellulose (dry basis), xL >0.22 is required, for both an energy balanced process and net GWP impact savings. The correlations facilitate the fast screening of lignocellulosic biomass options for bioethanol production in an integrated biorefinery.

Evaluation of municipal solid waste options in Turkey: Scenarios for energy recovery, carbon mitigation and consequent financial strategies

Solid waste management is a challenging issue in Turkey not only due to population and economic growths but its adverse environmental impact, financial problems and technological obstacles, as well. The detailed evaluation of solid waste options is significant not to end up with issues such as shutting down the plants and stopping the investments which may cause serious environmental problems as a result of uncontrolled landfill gas emissions. This research presents a theoretical model for energy recovery from the municipal solid waste (MSW) in Turkey, and the consequent carbon mitigation scenarios and financial strategies regarding the adoption of European Union acquis, respectively. The model predicts the population growth compatible with the baseline scenario of Turkish Statistical Institute data and the MSW generation for each city of Turkey between 2004–2043. The three scenarios, namely open dump, landfill and incineration, are taken into consideration for greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions, energy recovery from emissions and economics subject to the Turkish environmental regulations towards the progress of this adoption. The aim of the research is to fulfill the literature gap by proposing practical formulations and realistic models for the mentioned scenarios and considering the energy, economy and ecology nexus based on the regional characteristics of solid waste systems as a consequence of adapting the Turkish MSW regulations and management. Results show that the maximum potential of electricity production is estimated to be 3461–13,450 GW h (0.40–1.56 GW/annum) in the landfill scenario while it is 1572–8386 GW h (0.17–0.96 GW/annum) in the incineration scenario. According to the nationwide projections, Turkey will have consumed the electricity of 437 TW h and 2236 TW h by 2023 and 2043, respectively. While the landfill scenario would meet 0.40–1.40% and 0.15–0.60% of the nationwide electricity production for the interested years, respectively; the incineration scenario would supply 0.06–0.34% and 0.07–0.38% of the nationwide electricity consumption. The maximum total savings for the landfill and incineration scenarios would range from 35.2–66.7 and 32.7–64.5 billion $, respectively in a time horizon at which the total amount of wastes for the corresponding scenarios are equivalent to each other. It is stressed that the landfill scenario would be better for lowering the GHG emissions in case of proper emission control.

Performance Analysis of Large Scale Grid Connected PV Plants in the MENA Region

This study is an attempt to investigate the potential of electricity production from large scale Photovoltaic (PV) plants in the Middle East and North Africa (MENA) region. For this reason, three different PV plants configurations, with different capacities: 50, 70 and 100 MWp, were selected for simulation under the climate of ten locations in MENA region. Those locations are well distributed in the region and they have a GHI (Global horizontal irradiation) values between 1683,01 and 2445,39 kWh/m2/year. After that, in order to evaluate and benchmark the region’s PV performance and capacity production, the simulation results of the 100 MWp plant were compared with those simulated under the climate of the US and Spain for the same plant configuration. The results show that the average yearly electricity production from the 100 MWp plant in MENA is around 158 GWh/year, while the same configuration produces 155,8 GWh/year and 155,4 GWh/year if installed in Almeria, Spain and Bakersfield California respectively. For MENA region, the annual average performance ratio (PR) and yield factor (Yf) are of 73,2% and 1578,2 KWh/KWp respectively, whereas, those values are of 74,8% and 1555,9KWh/KWp for Spain and of 73,8% and 1555,2 KWh/KWp for the US. Generally, we can say that a 100 MWp PV plant can be a good option if installed in MENA region, and it may have a better performance than the US and southern Spain in some locations.

Development of the Polish geothermal sector in the light of current possibilities of financial support for a geothermal investment

Geothermal energy is an internal heat of the Earth, that is a prospective and sustainable source of renewable energy. In Poland, despite having significant amount of low-temperature geothermal resources, its share in the national energy mix remains marginal but growing. Currently, the utilisation of geothermal resources is related to hydrogeothermal resources, that are used mainly in space heating, recreation and balneotherapy. Nevertheless, the indication of potential electricity production is under research. The utilisation of geothermal resources entails a plenty of environmental benefits that are particularly important in the context of the present pollution problem. Therefore, the development of the geothermal energy sector is of relevant importance and with appropriate legal and financial conditions it may have a bearing on improvement of the environment’s quality and, ipso facto, living in Poland. Thus, this paper presents numerous possibilities of obtaining a financial support for investments in geothermal energy sector. Selected funding and financial backing systems currently available in Poland are discussed. The importance of opportunity of obtaining a financial support for an investment as one of the crucial factors for the geothermal sector development is emphasised. Moreover, the examples of installations implemented in the country in the context of obtained funding are presented.

BENEFIT FROM SOLAR RADIATION AS ALTERNATIVE ENERGY IN RIYADH REGION IN SAUDI ARABIA

The studied sites in the Riyadh region are characterized by a great abundance of natural and human resources throughout the year. So, they are qualified to invest solar energy as one of the most important sources of natural alternative energy, due to the abundance of solar radiation regularly during the year and its high intensity especially in the summer. This season is the period of the maximum demand for electric power.Solar energy is regularly available in the Riyadh area during 4380 hours of solar brightness per year at the studied sites. The solar energy of the Riyadh region during this period can provide a huge potential for electricity production with the renewable energy technologies and projects. So, the alternative solar energy can be required without high costs compared to the traditional energy resources draining most state budget and causing the large environment pollution.The production of electricity as an alternative renewable energy resource to traditional energy resources is one of the priorities of the future projects in the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia, which seeks to diversify its sources of energy by providing the maximum of the alternative energy. This alternative option has become the priority of sustainable development, which aims to preserve human and natural resources with reducing the electricity production cost. This option make possible the gradual absorption of traditional energy sources polluting the environment and threatened with depletion.

Forecast of electric energy generation potential from swine manure in Santa Catarina, Brazil

The population growth in recent decades increased the demand for energy, and food production and both factors have affected negatively the environment. Most of the energy is generated from fossil fuels, which have limits of exploitation and whose combustion is harmful to the environment. In this context, exploration of alternative and clean energy sources becomes fundamental. Large-scale factory farm production of animals for meat consumption is also a significant factor of environmental degradation, being the manure production one of the causes of damage. This study estimates the potential of the biomass of swine manure to generate energy in Santa Catarina, Brazil. For this purpose, calculations of biomass conversion into electric energy were performed. In addition, the potential of energy generation was estimated using SARIMA (seasonal autoregressive integrated moving average) models. The results indicated a potential electricity production of approximately 36 million KWh per month, which represents approximately 2% of the total energy consumed in Santa Catarina and is sufficient to supply the demand of 229,384 residences. In addition, it was possible to predict the generation of energy for months after the availability of data. These estimation and forecasted data are useful for a more detailed planning of energy policies.
