We analyze the design of optimal feed-in tariff schedules under production-based learning. We examine least cost policies in a simple two-period model that focuses on bringing down the levelized cost of renewable technologies to a predefined target under two well-known dynamics: learning-by-doing (LBD) and economies of scale (EOS). We show that, when the levelized cost reduction target is strin...

Energy communities are becoming a key topic in the decarbonization process as they can simultaneously guarantee economic, environmental, and social benefits. In this paper, an integrated method for implementation of linear bottom-up optimization model has been developed order to address these aspects energy community: (i) definition dispatch best technology mix; (ii) assessment role Demand Side...

In response to electricity markets with growing levels of wind energy production and varying electricity prices, this research examines incentives for investments in integrated renewable energy power systems. A strategy for using optimization methods for a power system consisting of wind turbines, electrolyzers, and hydrogen fuel cells is explored. This research reveals the investment potential...

Electricity production accounts for around 40% of global energy-related CO2 emissions and it is expected that the electricity demand increases to twice the current level in 2050. Therefore it is necessary to invest in low-carbon thermal power plants, nuclear and renewable energy for realizing low-carbon economy. These policies may require a large amount of investment costs, and additionally, th...

the objectives of this research were to investigate influences of energy inputs and energy forms on output levels and evaluation of co2 emissions for hazelnut production in guilan province of iran. moreover, the sensitivity analysis was done by marginal physical productivity (mpp) method for energy inputs and energy using linear regression. initial data were collected from 120 orchardists in se...

In order to reach the targets for connection of renewable energy resources to distribution networks, new control and management approaches are needed. In this paper, solutions are presented for significantly increasing the connection of Distributed Energy Resources (DER), without over-investment in network infrastructure. A Distribution Management System (DMS) provides coordinated centralised o...
