Secure and reliable operation of power systems with high wind and solar shares requires system flexibility. In this paper, an hourly-based market and grid simulation model is developed to assess security and reliability of a power system with high wind and solar energy share. The model is...

High daytime electricity demand from space cooling synergetic with predictable and reliable solar insolation creates a unique opportunity to exploit solar PV-enabled decarbonization solutions in Qatar. This paper examines the economic viability of combining utility-scale PV with ice thermal and...

This study investigates the techno-economic impacts analysis of renewable energy-based hybrid energy storage system integrated grid electric vehicles charging station (EVCS) in Malaysia. Focusing on three potential locations namely Pulau Pinang, Johor Bharu and Kuala Terengganu, the research...

Geothermal energy has a significant role to play in the global transition to renewable and low-carbon energy systems because of its ability to supply steady and flexible electricity particularly for baseload demand because of its cost competitiveness compared to fossil fuel energy options....

The Cameroon electricity sector is currently plagued by inadequate generation capacity. The electricity supply deficit has had dire consequences on attaining the country's industrialization, socioeconomic and developmental objectives enshrined in her Vision 2035. However, there are sustainable...

The use of distributed energy resources (DER) programs, which include separate renewable energy (RE) programs, has expanded in residential as well as commercial structures as an outcome of recent technological developments. The virtual power plant (VPP) may improve the security and reliability...

Iran holds the world's second-largest proven oil reserves and fourth-largest gas reserves. However, the heavy reliance on highly subsidized fossil fuel resources, coupled with growing demand, has led to their depletion and increased greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions. This research introduces a...

The development of a country cannot be realized only through the amount of energy it produces and its industrialization. In a country where its people are left homeless and poor, and its cultural and natural riches are destroyed, the electricity produced is not a measure of development on its...

Due to its location in arid and semi-arid climates, Iran is one of the countries with the highest water stress, and the need for a study that states a solution for using salt water is felt more than ever. For the first time in this paper, an indirect method is presented to identify areas prone...

Bangladesh has tremendous development potential across a wide range of socioeconomic sectors. Over the past decade, its energy and power sectors have grown consistently. However, the unexpected outbreak of COVID-19 threatens the continuation of progress. To successfully overcome and comply with...
