We consider a farm of Kite Power Systems (KPS) in the field of Airborne Wind Energy (AWE), in which each kite is connected to an electric ground generator by a tether. In particular, we address the problem of selecting the best layout of such farm in a given land area such that the total...

The Authors consider that as a mid-term storage technology (from some hours to some days), small/medium size CAES systems (1-10 MW) might be efficiently and profitably used for off-grid and self-consumption applications as well as for the provision of ancillary services on the lower grid levels....

Buildings in hot and humid climates spend more than 60% of the total energy cost for Air Conditioning and Mechanical Ventilation Systems (ACMV) to maintain the required thermal comfort for occupants. The required air conditioning load drastically increases with the fresh air demand of the...

New processes that may reduce the net carbon emissions and contribute to a more circular economy are needed. Bi-reforming of methane (BRM) is a promising method for syngas production, with a hydrogen-to-carbon monoxide ratio of two in the reaction products, relevant for example when the purpose...
