Life cycle cost analysis of a multi-storey residential Net Zero Energy Building in Denmark

Marszal, Anna Joanna; Heiselberg, Per - In: Energy 36 (2011) 9, pp. 5600-5609

It is well recognized that in the long run, the implementation of energy efficiency measures is a more cost-optimal solution in contrast to taking no action. However, the Net ZEB concept raises a new issue: how far should we go with energy efficiency measures and when should we start to apply...

Limiting biomass consumption for heating in 100% renewable energy systems

Mathiesen, Brian Vad; Lund, Henrik; Connolly, David - In: Energy 48 (2012) 1, pp. 160-168

The utilisation of biomass poses large challenges in renewable energy systems while buildings account for a substantial part of the energy supply even in 100% renewable energy systems. In this paper the focus is on how the heating sector can reduce its consumption of biomass, thus leaving...

Assessment of community energy supply systems using energy, exergy and exergoeconomic analysis

Bagdanavicius, Audrius; Jenkins, Nick; Hammond, Geoffrey P. - In: Energy 45 (2012) 1, pp. 247-255

Energy, exergy and exergoeconomic analysis are often used for assessing large energy conversion systems. However exergy and exergoeconomic analysis are rarely used when small or medium scale energy generation systems, such as community CHP/CCHP plants or microcogeneration systems are evaluated.

Using Monte Carlo Simulation to Account for Uncertainties in the Spatial Explicit Modeling of Biomass Fired Combined Heat and Power Potentials in Austria

Schmidt, Johannes; Leduc, Sylvain; Dotzauer, Erik; … - Department für Wirtschafts- und Sozialwissenschaften, … - 2009

Austria aims at increasing its share of renewable energy production by 11% until 2020. Combined Heat and Power (CHP) plants fired by forest wood can significantly contribute to attaining this target. However, the spatial distribution of biomass supply and of heat demand limits the potentials of...

Swedish district heating—A system in stagnation: Current and future trends in the district heating sector

Magnusson, Dick - In: Energy Policy 48 (2012) C, pp. 449-459

This paper argues that Sweden’s old and established district heating sector is heading into a stagnation phase. The aim is to analyse the factors influencing this development as well as the strategies used by involved parties to prevent stagnation. Using large technical system theory, I...

Heat pumps in combined heat and power systems

Ommen, Torben; Markussen, Wiebke Brix; Elmegaard, Brian - In: Energy 76 (2014) C, pp. 989-1000

Heat pumps have previously been proposed as a way to integrate higher amounts of renewable energy in DH (district heating) networks by integrating, e.g., wind power. The paper identifies and compares five generic configurations of heat pumps in DH systems. The operational performance of the...

Fulfilling the electricity demand of electric vehicles in the long term future: An evaluation of centralized and decentralized power supply systems

Brouwer, Anne Sjoerd; Kuramochi, Takeshi; van den … - In: Applied Energy 107 (2013) C, pp. 33-51

Electric vehicles (EVs) are currently seen as an option for a more sustainable transportation sector, but it is not yet clear how to supply them with electricity whilst striving for low costs and low CO2 emissions. Renewable sources can supply electricity with low emissions, but their...

Introducing District Heating in a Norwegian town – Potential for reduced Local and Global Emissions

Gebremedhin, Alemayehu - In: Applied Energy 95 (2012) C, pp. 300-304

This paper presents the results of a municipal energy system analysis where the role of district heating is emphasised. A simplified energy system model based on linear programming is used to study the impact of introducing biomass based district heating in the community. Based on existing...
