Economic and Environmental Benefits of CHP-based District Heating Systems in Sweden
Future energy systems and thus the climate are affected by many factors, such as energy resources, energy demand, energy policy and the choice of energy technologies. Energy systems of the future are facing three main challenges; the steady growth of global energy demand, the energy resource depletion, as well as the increasing emissions of carbon dioxide (CO 2) and other greenhouse gases and t...
متن کاملEconomic and environmental benefits of converting industrial processes to district heating
The aim of this study was to analyse the possibilities of converting industrial processes from electricity and fossil fuels to district heating in 83 companies in three Swedish counties. Effects on the local district heating systems were explored, as well as economic effects and impacts on global emissions of greenhouse gases. The study was conducted considering two different energy market cond...
متن کاملExploiting Dual Conditions in Economic Dispatch of District Heating Systems
The paper deals with the economic dispatch problem for a district heating system. The distribution network is modeled with a number of nodes and arcs, implying that time delays and restrictions in distribution capacity can be considered. A solution algorithm for the corresponding nonlinear optimization problem is proposed. The method is based on Lagrangian relaxation and exploits the relations ...
متن کاملNetwork synthesis for district heating with multiple heat plants
In this paper the first results of a new method for the configuration of district energy systems are presented. District energy systems are believed to help decreasing the CO2-emissions due to energy services (heating, cooling, electricity and hot water), by implementing polygeneration energy conversion technologies. However, because polygeneration technologies are complex, it is meaningful to ...
متن کاملEnvironmental-economic evaluation of sugar cane bagasse gasification power plants versus combined-cycle gas power plants
Approximately 2.4 million tons of bagasse are produced each year in Iran, most of which are currently treated as waste adding to serious environmental concerns. Application of bagasse for energy production is a sustainable solution to supply the required energy within the sugar refineries and export the surplus electricity to the grid. Currently, the energy demand in Iranian sugar mills is main...
