Cogeneration District Energy Systems
Technical Meeting / Petroleum Conference of The South Saskatchewan Section, 1993Introduction In the early 1900's electric power was generated near to the demand centers. Many cities, including small ones like Moose Jaw, contained a central power plant that often supplied waste heat as steam to heat nearby buildings or a downtown core.

During the past decade, increasing local and global problems regarding energy, the environment, and the economy have created one of the biggest challenges for human beings to combat through sustainable solutions. District energy systems (DESs) for distributed heating and/or cooling, known also as district heating and cooling (DHC) systems, appear to be

UBC Academic District Energy System : Thermal Energy Storage
2020This report aims to investigate thermal storage alternatives for the University of British Columbia (UBC) to explore in its journey to carbon neutrality by 2050. The thermal storage system will ideally reduce peak thermal energy requirements from the UBC district heating system during start-ups in the cold months of the year, thereby flattening overall

Decarbonizing UBC’s District Energy System : District Energy Heat Pump Technology
2020UBC is working on initiatives to meet its climate action target of achieving carbon neutrality by the year 2050. A major percentage of UBC’s GHG emissions occur in buildings operations, specifically, in space heating and domestic hot water heating to meet the thermal demand of the campus.

Exergy analyses of cogeneration and district energy systems
2007Cogeneration is a technique for producing heat and electricity in one process that can save considerable amounts of energy. Cogeneration is often associated with the combustion of fossil fuels but can also be carried out using some renewable energy sources and by burning wastes.

Energy Management System for an Energy District With Demand Response Availability
IEEE Transactions on Smart Grid, 2014During recent years the electricity supply chain (electricity production, consumption, distribution, storage, and load management) has changed. In this context a new term appears: the prosumer, that is both a consumer and producer of energy in the same entity.

District heating in clean energy systems
Nature reviews. Clean technologyDistrict heating (DH) can provide commercial and domestic heating, using excess heat that would otherwise be lost. However, existing systems are heavily reliant on fossil fuels, and many fail to fully exploit abundant waste heat sources. Technological development is needed to integrate these DH systems into evolving clean energy systems to support ...

District heating systems and energy conservation—Part II
Energy, 1994Abstract The potential for energy conservation in space and water heating for five district-heated buildings of three types in south-west Sweden is analyzed. The energy savings for different conservation measures are estimated using a computer program which calculates daily building energy balances.
