Currently, many socially responsible governments adopt economic incentives and deterrents to manage environmental impacts of electricity suppliers. Considering the Stackelberg leadership of the government, the government’s role in the competition of power plants in an electricity market is investigated. A one-population evolutionary game model of power plants is developed to study how their pro...

introduction despite the abundant renewable energy sources, the iranian energy sector relies almost entirely on fossil fuel energy resources. power sector is dominant source of co2emissions and responsible for about 35% of total co2 emissions in the country. additionally, long-term electricity demand of iran is expected to grow quickly, which in turn requires extensive investment to meet the gr...

Nowadays, utilization of renewable energies for satisfying electricity demand has received more interest, and renewable electricity generation has been growing in the world. This study addresses the operational planning of a renewable electricity supply chain over a multi-period planning horizon. The purpose of this study is to maximize total profit and to optimize the operational decisions rel...

increasing the usage of electricity power illustrates its growing proportion and effective role in the energy economy. it also depicts the connection between using the electricity power and economic development. regarding the strategic role of power plants in the economic and social development, the absence of the environmental considerations in all phases, including site selection, planning, p...

many reports that appeared during the last 20 years have shown that atmospheric pollution causes serious damage to human health and to environment. electricity generation from fuel fossil is one of the major sources of pollution and considerable share of this damage. the price of electricity in iran, as in many other countries also, includes only the production of private costs and ignores any ...

Background: Poultry droppings from poultry farms and rice husks obtained from rice milling process are generally considered as wastes and discarded in Nigeria. Although many studies have shown that microbial fuel cells (MFCs) can generate electricity from organic wastes, little or no study have examined MFCs for generating electricity from poultry droppings and rice husk as electrode material. ...

This paper presents a study of the national electric power, showing the Brazil consumes electricity in a year and how much you could save if thermoelectric modules were used in some industries and new cars and planes to capture and transformation of residual thermal energy into electrical energy. The conclusion appears really attractive economically, given the fact that many processes generate ...

Photovoltaic power is playing an ever-increasing role in the energy mix of countries worldwide. It a stochastic source, and simulation models are needed to establish reliable risk management. This paper presents novel approach for simulating hourly solar irradiation and—as consequence—photovoltaic based on easily accessible data such as wind, temperature, cloudiness. Solar simulations generated...

this paper expands a model different from existing models to analyze the cost and benefit of areinforced concrete solar chimney power plant (rcscpp) built in the desert regions of iran.based on the model and some assumptions for values of parameters, this paper calculates totalnet present value (tnpv) and the minimum electricity price in each phase by dividing the wholeservice period into four ...
