In the study presented in this paper, the deterioration in the performance of an industrial gas turbine during the operation design point was simulated by using the thermodynamic principle and a multi feedforward artificial neural networks (MFANN) system. Initially the thermodynamic model was...

Purpose: In order to improve the energy utilization and achieve sustainable development, this paper integrates energy efficiency into condition-based maintenance(CBM) decision-making for two-component parallel systems. The objective is to obtain the optimal maintenance policy by minimizing total...

We study how residential energy efficiency impacts well-being. We propose an innovative framework to assess the effects of investments in energy efficiency through the lens of energy poverty experiences. Leveraging a novel micro-level dataset of Irish households' and buildings' characteristics,...

This paper studies the adoption of high-cost, medium-cost, and low-cost energy-efficient technologies (EETs) by income categories in eight European Union countries, relying on demographically representative household surveys carried out simultaneously among about 15,000 households in France,...

The European plan for a green transition includes the Fit for 55 package, designed to pave the way for climate neutrality. Despite its significant implications for cleaner technologies, it potentially correlates with high investment requirements, necessitating the pursuit of cost-effective...

Energy subsidies can account for a large share of government expenditures in some GCC countries. In light of fiscal imbalances since 2014, these countries have reiterated their intention to decrease subsidies and substitute them with more targeted support systems. This paper briefly outlines the...

This study addresses a new generation of adaptable intelligent control systems for energy management. The proposed approach consists of a high-level predictive control system based on advanced simulation and optimization algorithms which interact with conventional machine-level controllers of...

Nowadays, the energy efficiency is the most important aspect to pay attention. Ship resistances are one of the most important factors in order to see the energy efficiency aspect in the marine transportation. Researchers have done a lot of researches to reduce resistance on ship. One of the...
