We develop a stochastic model of zonal/regional electricity prices, designed to reflect information in fuel forward curves and aggregated capacity and load as well as zonal or regional price spreads. We use a nonparametric model of the supply stack that captures heat rates and fuel prices for all generators in the market operator territory, combined with an adjustment term to approximate conges...

sweet sorghum that is adapted to the country hot and dry climatic condition, was selected as a raw material for biofuel and biogas production. bioethanol is produced from sweet sorghum stalks and grains and biogas is produced from its byproducts. the purpose of this study was to plant sweet sorghum irrigated with different qualities of water in order to produce biofuels. this experiment was con...

As electricity prices continue to rise, it is essential that UK non-domestic consumers develop smart energy management practices. However, most of these lack awareness the spatial–temporal dynamics and their tariff components. To help overcome barriers contribute price digitalisation, this paper presents a Modelling Electricity Regional Costs (MUKERC) framework. A bottom-up methodology defines ...

economic imbalances and social disparities are a common feature of developmenteconomies, particularly those which have historical antecedents of colonial rule. the study ofregional imbalances is given focus especially to southeast asian countries owing to its renewedimportance in the global order. post independent india had to tackle with several problems at theoutset, regional imbalance and ec...

This study analyses the integration of electric vehicles (EV) into the German power grid including different demand side management (DSM) approaches from a technical, economical and user perspective. For this an overview of the future German electricity market with the focus on EV integration is given. It is shown that for conservative EV penetration rates the effect on the electricity generati...

Electricity is a convenient and clean energy which can provide strong support for the development of all walks of life. The power development should maintain coordination with the regional economic development, in which power development may advance sometimes. Hebei province is a typical resource-based area in China, and its power consumption is closely related to economic development, which ma...

The electricity sector is a major source of carbon dioxide emissions that contribute to global climate change. Switching from fossil fuels to renewable fuels such as geothermal, biomass or wind would help to reduce carbon emissions from electricity generation. This research analyzes the costs and carbon emission consequences of three policies to promote the use of renewables to generate electri...
