Abstract:

The topic of renewable energy is an evergreen subject, especially, in a world dominated by fossil fuels. Renewable energy is widely discussed in the contemporary world because it is unlimited, which means it’s sustainable and does not emit greenhouse gasses that are harmful to the environment and human life. A classic example of renewable energy is wave energy.

Abstract:

This study examines the advocacy coalitions in Russia. Using the Advocacy Coalition Framework, it looks at the power resource distribution amongst the coalitions, and how this distribution affects Russian foreign policy. The power resources examined are: Formal Legal Authority; Public Opinion; Information; Mobilizable Troops; and Financial Resources. In addition to this, the study used quantitative and qualitative methods to identify these resources. There are a couple of conclusions we may draw from this study. The method is useful in identifying power resources. It is not enough to use only

Abstract:

This thesis focuses on the disputed identity of rural Cyprus. It is an ethnographic study on tourism that argues that the power of western hegemony, not only defines but also reverses the definition of ‘modern’ identity in the cultural setting of Cyprus in a way that its authority is maintained and legitimized. By focusing on identity politics and tourism in the Troodos mountainous region, this study examines the conflict between native elites and locals over the definition of modernity. In the postcolonial setting of the 1960s, native elites reproduced the western vision of ‘development’, ‘pr

Small-scale, residential, and distributed energy resources (DER), which are electric vehicles (EVs), heat pumps (HPs), and photovoltaic (PV) arrays, were studied to evaluate their impact on the UK future residential demand and their impact on UK distribution networks. Centralized and decentralized controllers were planned in order to defer reinforcement, while connecting DER units to distribution networks. The centralized controller allocates EV charging durations considering network constraints. The decentralized controller adjusts EV and HP loads based on consumer satisfaction, network const

Abstract:

Electrical power systems are deemed as one of the most complex systems mankind has built to date. Nonetheless, continuous changes on electricity generation and consumption are increasing the complexity of these systems. The uptake of behind-the-meter distributed energy resources (DER) (such as rooftop PV, battery systems, and flexible loads) requires a more precise coordination of all agents in the grid. This is particularly true for distribution systems, which are traditionally passive systems but require coordination under a high percentage of DER penetration. To perform such coordination, t

The objective of this research is to present a comprehensive framework for harnessing the flexibility of power systems in the presence of unforeseen events, such as those associated with component outages or renewable energy variability. Increased penetration of variable resources in the power grid, mainly in the form of wind and solar plants, has resulted in variable power flow patterns, increased thermal unit cycling and higher reserve capacity requirements. Furthermore, the variability of renewable energy output has increased the system’s ramping requirements and threatens the system’s volt

Consequentially, the social and economic development of these two billion people hangs in the balance. In recent times, however, considerable advocacy has taken place in the academic and pol

Coupled with the environmental consequences of fossil fuel use, South Africa has a further responsibility of addressing the inherited backlog of electricity provision to the rural, and previously disadvantaged communities.

The unfavourable role of CO₂ in stimulating climate change has generated concerns as CO₂ levels in the atmosphere continue to increase. As a result, it has been recommended that coal-fired power plants which are major CO₂ emitters should be operated with a carbon capture and storage (CCS) system to reduce CO₂ emission levels from the plant. Studies on CCS chain have been limited except a few high profile projects. Majority of previous studies focused on individual components of the CCS chain which are insufficient to understand how the components of the CCS chain interact dynamically during op

As electric vehicles (EVs) become more popular, the utility companies are forced to increase power generations in the grid. However, these EVs are capable of providing power to the grid to deliver different grid ancillary services in a concept known as vehicle-to-grid (V2G) and grid-to-vehicle (G2V), in which the EV can serve as a load or source at the same time. These services can provide more benefits when they are integrated with Photovoltaic (PV) generation.

Also the political composition of the elected institutions (parliament and executive) whether they are Conservative-dominated or Reformist-dominated, can define the actual law making power of the parliament.

The totally asymmetric simple exclusion process (TASEP) models well the translation process. However, these genes are constantly competing for ribosomes and other resources in the cell.
