Designing district-scale energy systems with renewable sources is still a challenge, as it involves modeling of multiple loads and many options to combine system components. In the current study, two different scenarios for district in Montreal/Canada are compared choose most cost-effective energy-efficient scenario studied area. first scenario, decentral comprised ground-source heat pumps prov...

This paper introduces the amazing CLEWs Nepal model - a powerful tool that sheds light on intricate interplay between climate policies and crucial resources like land, energy, water. With more countries taking bold steps to combat change, it's understand ripple effects of such decisions other sectors. That's where come in, providing decision-makers with valuable insights into trade-offs synergi...

[1] This paper presents a novel approach for modeling high-elevation hydropower systems. Conservation of energy and energy flows (rather than water volume or mass flows) is used as the basis for modeling more than 135 high-elevation high-head hydropower sites throughout California. The unusual energy basis for reservoir modeling allows for development of hydropower operations models for a large...

Distributed generation (DG) sources are becoming more prominent in distribution systems due to the incremental demands for electrical energy. Locations and capacities of DG sources have great impacts on the system losses in a distribution network. This paper presents a study aimed for optimally determining the size and location of distributed generation units in distribution systems with differ...
