Techno-economic analysis of a solar district heating system with seasonal thermal storage in the UK
Applied Energy, 2019 Heat demand in buildings is responsible for around 40% of all energy use in middle to high latitude countries. The combination of district heating systems with solar thermal energy and seasonal thermal energy storage has successfully reduced the carbon ...

The ‘District Heating Wall’:a synergistic approach to achieve affordable carbon emission reductions in old terraced houses [PDF]
, 2012 One effective method to help the UK achieve GHG emission reduction targets is to reduce and decarbonise the heat demand of solid-walled terraced houses, as there are over 2.5 million such buildings making up a significant proportion of the whole building

FEBS Letters, EarlyView.Encapsulins are protein nanocompartments that play an important role in iron storage. In the Myxococcus xanthus encapsulin system, two cargo proteins called EncB and EncC contribute to iron mineralization. Here, we show that EncB and EncC generate iron‐containing minerals with distinct chemical compositions, suggesting that the composition of stored ...

Artificial molecular machines and motors—Design and control of nanoscale motion
FEBS Letters, EarlyView.Molecules are constantly moving because of thermal fluctuations, but random motion alone cannot be exploited to perform directional tasks. Artificial molecular machines use chemical, electrical, or light energy to bias this motion. Molecular shuttles, rotary motors, and supramolecular pumps illustrate how nanoscale movement can be controlled and ...

Predicting Heat Demand for a District Heating Systems [PDF]
International Journal of Energy and Power Engineering, 2014 Poland is one of the heaviest users of district heating systems in Europe, and those district heating systems are heated mainly by coal. Sustainable development of district heating systems in Poland including improving quality of environment, economic of heat production and security of heat supply is in close connection with increasing of energy ...

Demand side management in district heating systems [PDF]
Proceedings of the 6th international joint conference on Autonomous agents and multiagent systems, 2007 This paper describes a multiagent system that has made the voyage from research project to commercialised product. The purpose for the multiagent system is to dynamically control a system so that the load of the system is below certain threshold values without reduction of quality of service and by that, to avoid the usage of top load production ...

International Journal of Sustainable Energy Planning and Management, 2019 The consumers are considered to play one of the most significant roles in the district heating transition process towards the 4th generation. Unfortunately, the lack of information and widespread consumer ignorance of interconnections and dependencies ...

International Journal of Sustainable Energy Planning and Management, 2021 District heating systems have a great potential for supporting the energy transition towards a renewa-ble energy system, and could also be an option in less dense populated urban districts and rural communities with a medium heat density. In these cases,
