Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: -updates the previous analyses and discussions of system economics to include solar and storage resource options versus the previously analyzed fossil-fueled generation and demand side management (DSM) resource options. -provides a step-by-step analysis approach that can be used to determine the amount of solar and storage that would be needed by a utility to achieve zero or near-zero carbon emissions, plus discusses how the projected level of electric vehicles (EVs) impact those calculations. - presents a discussion of how the firm capacity of solar is calculated based on a utility’s Summer and Winter peak day load shapes and how these values will change over time. - provides a discussion and calculation methodology of how a utility can determine what firm capacity values should be assigned to batteries of different durations (2-hour, 4-hour, etc.) for use in system reliability and economic analyses and how these values will change over time. - continues the approach taken in the 1st edition of explaining topics in language understandable to both the layman and the energy professional. In that respect, the numerous figures and tables provide both graphic and numerical calculation depictions of the issues discussed.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Originally published in 1994, this book contains the edited papers of the workshop of the Energy and Environmental Programme at the Royal Institute of Interantional Affairs which examined the interaction between environmental legislation and the energy indusutries. It examines past experience; the nature of the challenges to the industries; actual industrial responses and what implications this might have framing legislation. The international contributors represent a range of perspectives.

Download or read book External Environmental Costs of Electric Power written by Olav Hohmeyer and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2012-12-06 with total page 500 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Environmental costs of electric power generation are receiving increasing attention as an important input to planning and decision processes. Since the outstart of the discussion on the monetized environmental costs of electricity in 1988 a number of studies have been conducted on the subject, producing partially contradictory results. Simultaneously political action has resulted from the first stage on this discussion process. In Germany the higher rates which have to be payed to autoproducers based on renewable energy sources have been explicitly justified by the existence of external environmental costs of conventional electricity generation. At the same time some state regulatory commissions in the United States have introduced adders for environmental costs in the utility planning process. This book reports on the first international workshop on the subject, bringing together practically all experts in the field of research and political implementation from the United States and Germany, the two pioneering countries. The more than thirty contributed papers contained in this volume give the most comprehensive and up-to-date overview of the field. Some papers already outline the future course of research by giving an overview over some major research projects, which have just started.

Book excerpt: Presents the results of a study undertaken by the Nat. Coal Council (NCC) of the contributions to be made by coal to the nation's future energy requirements. Outlines a vision for the industry over the next 25 years, setting forth the NCC's beliefs that the future role of coal will be defined by the issues and policies challenging the industry now and over the 25-year time period. Advances ideas and recommendations to help address those issues. Discusses the role of coal in the nation's economic health, environmental issues, generation and end use technologies, international issues, and the role of the Federal government vs. private industry.

This book was released on 2012-12-06 with total page 531 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Since the mid-seventies, electric utilities were faced with escalating construction costs, growing environmental plus siting constraints and increasing uncertainty in demand forecasting. To cope with the increasing demand for energy services, utilities can either invest in supply-side options (new generation, transmission and distribution facilities) or in demand-side options. Demand-side options include, policies, programmes, innovative pricing schemes and high-efficiency end-use equipment (equipment providing the same or better level of services but using less energy or peak power). Recent experience in both North America and Europe show that demand-side options are usually cheaper and less damaging from the environmental point of view, and also their potential can be tapped in a shorter term than other supply-side options. This workshop was directed at the discussion and analysis of cost-effective methodologies to achieve the supply of electric energy services at minimum cost and minimum environmental impact. The programme included new developments in power planning models which can integrate both supply-side and demand-side actions. Quantitative assessments of the environmental impact of different supply-demand strategies were analyzed. Planning models which deal with uncertainty and use multicriteria approaches were presented. Case studies and experiments with, innovative concepts carried out by utilities in several countries were discussed. Load modelling and evaluation of demad-side programmes was analyzed. Additionally, the potential for electricity savings in the industrial, commercial and residential sectors was presented. New research directions covering planning models, programmes and end-use technologies were identified.
Download or read book Environmental Impact of Power Generation written by R E Hester and published by Royal Society of Chemistry. This book was released on 2007-10-31 with total page 152 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In today's automated world, the need for economic generation of power is of vital importance. However, the industry is commonly perceived as being responsible for pollution of the atmosphere and contamination of land and water. The wide-ranging subjects addressed in this book will contribute to the public understanding of science in this important area. Encompassing areas as diverse as current performance standards and the use of nuclear fuel, Environmental Impact of Power Generation also includes an historical overview of electricity supply. The emotive issues of air pollution and the ecological effects of overhead power lines are tackled, along with energy efficiency and conservation. This book will be essential reading for students and practitioners in environmental science and engineering.
