The Tiger and the Sun: Solar Power Plants and Wildlife Sanctuaries
نویسنده
چکیده
We discuss separate and integrated approaches to building scalable solar power plants and wildlife sanctuaries. Both solar power plants and wildlife sanctuaries need a lot of land. We quantify some of the requirements using various estimates of the rate of solar power production as well as the rate of adding wildlife to a sanctuary over the time range 2010-2050. We use population dynamics equations to study the evolution of solar energy and tiger populations up to and beyond 2050.

Abstract: In the last decade, the amount of distributed generation connected to the distribution network is increasing. The presence of distributed generation resources in distribution systems has a great influence on its behavior and it is necessary to consider the impact of these resources on the distribution network design. In this study, Optimal Coordinated Voltage Control (OCVC) using wind...
متن کاملEvaluation of solar-chimney power plants with multiple-angle collectors
Solar chimney power plants are plants based on solar thermal power including three parts of collector, chimney and turbine, which is able to produce electrical energy. One of the effective parameters in increasing the power production is the collector angles versus horizon. In the present study, a numerical analysis of a solar chimney power plant for different angles of the collector (divergent...

متن کاملIntegrated Unit Commitment and Natural Gas Network Considering the High Solar Penetration
In this paper, the integrated unit commitment problem and gas network operation in which in the presence of renewable wind and solar power plants is modeled. Both wind and solar energy are variable sources of energy, but because solar energy is only available at certain times of the day, it has caused the load curve behavior to change. This change in load curve, known as the "duck curve, has ra...
