Renewable energy community and the European energy market: main motivations [PDF]

Heliyon, 2020
With the implementation of the EU's key climate and energy policy objectives, there is a transition to a new energy system where renewable energy sources are pushed and where new technologies need to be developed and adopted. The energy transition may result in deeper participation of individual consumers or citizens in community-based initiatives ...

Modeling of Renewable Energy Communities: the RECoupled approach

2022 IEEE 46th Annual Computers, Software, and Applications Conference (COMPSAC), 2022
The increase in energy production and consumption from Renewable Energy Sources (RES) is becoming strategic to reduce CO2 emissions and to contrast climate-change related issues. In this view, EU promoted the creation of Renewable Energy Communities (RECs) to foster the sharing of local RES production among end users.

Role of Liquid Composition in the Transient Liquid Assisted Growth of Superconducting YBa2Cu3O7‐δ Films

Advanced Materials, EarlyView.
The Y supersaturation in the [Ba‐Cu(I/II)‐O] transient liquid composition is the driving force toward YBCO nucleation and growth in TLAG. Tuning the initial (Ba:Cu) molar ratio in the ink composition determines the YBCO epitaxial nucleation through supersaturation control.

Adaptive Communication System with Renewable Energy Source [PDF]

IEICE Transactions on Communications, 2015
This paper introduces a communication system model with renewable power supply. As we assumed a battery-free microgrid system with conventional power as a backup power supply, we propose a method of power state and data transmission scheduling for delay-tolerant communication networks, which reduces conventional power consumption by operating ...
