Methodology for estimating biomass energy potential and its application to Colombia

Gonzalez-Salazar, Miguel Angel; Morini, Mirko; Pinelli, … - In: Applied Energy 136 (2014) C, pp. 781-796

This paper presents a methodology to estimate the biomass energy potential and its associated uncertainty at a country level when quality and availability of data are limited. The current biomass energy potential in Colombia is assessed following the proposed methodology and results are compared...

Measurement and estimation of photosynthetically active radiation from 1961 to 2011 in Central China

Wang, Lunche; Gong, Wei; Li, Chen; Lin, Aiwen; Hu, Bo; … - In: Applied Energy 111 (2013) C, pp. 1010-1017

Measurements of photosynthetically active radiation (PAR) and global solar radiation (G) at WHU, Central China during 2006–2011 were used to investigate the seasonal characteristics of PAR and PAR/G (PAR fraction). Both PAR and PAR fraction showed similar seasonal features that peaked in...

Power System Impacts of Electric Vehicles in Germany: Charging with Coal or Renewables

Schill, Wolf-Peter; Gerbaulet, Clemens - In: Applied Energy 156 (2015), pp. 185-196

We analyze the impacts of future scenarios of electric vehicles (EVs) on the German power system, drawing on different assumptions on the charging mode. We find that the impact on the load duration curve strongly differs between charging modes. In a fully user-driven mode, charging largely...

Behavior of the aggregate wind resource in the ISO regions in the United States

Gunturu, Udaya Bhaskar; Schlosser, C. Adam - In: Applied Energy 144 (2015) C, pp. 175-181

The collective behavior of wind farms in seven Independent System Operator (ISO) areas has been studied. The generation duration curves for each ISO show that there is no aggregated power for some fraction of time. Aggregation of wind turbines mitigates intermittency to some extent, but in each...
