Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titleUsing Regression Analysis to Predict the Demand Function of Electricity: A Case StudyHasan Karimian Khozani, Esmaeil Esmaeili, Mohammad Najjartabar Bisheh et al.Due to the growing electricity consumption in Iran, investigating the changes of the electricity demand is one of the fundamental challenges facing many professionals and planners. The planners always invest efforts to address this issue by accurately predicting the electricity demand over the years and increasing the extra capacity respectively. One of the main tools for predicting the electricity demand … …American Journal of Engineering and Applied Sciences, Vol. 13, Issue 4 · 20 Dec 2020 · 6,459 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titleAn Assessment of GHGs Reduction Potential from Bio-Electricity Generation: Agricultural Waste-to-Energy Project in Thailand as a Case StudyKittipongvises Suthirat, Polprasert ChongrakDriven by concerns of energy security and global climate change, this study aimed to investigate the potential of greenhouse gases (GHGs) emissions reduction from bio-electricity project in Thailand. A cogeneration plant in which deploying biomass residues from sugar cane production was selected as a case study. By considering the ACM0006 method, namely “Consolidated methodology for electricity and heat generation from … …American Journal of Environmental Sciences, Vol. 12, Issue 4 · 17 Aug 2016 · 7,212 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titleThe Effect of Electricity Price on Saving Energy Transmitted from External Building WallsSamah K. Alghoul, Ammar O. Gwesha, Abdurrauf M. NaasSpace heating and cooling loads consume a significant part of the national produced energy in many countries. Therefore, substantial energy savings can be achieved by the reduction of spent energy in this category. Since wall insulation is rarely used in Libya, this research was conducted to study the effect of electricity price on residential heating and cooling energy consumption and … …Energy Research Journal, Vol. 7, Issue 1 · 31 May 2016 · 10,842 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titleIntegrated Electricity Planning Comprise Renewable Energy and Feed-In TariffHo Wai Shin, Haslenda HashimProblem statement: Mitigation of global warming and energy crisis has called upon the need of an efficient tool for electricity planning. This study thus presents an electricity planning tool that incorporates RE with Feed in-Tariff (FiT) for various sources of Renewable Energy (RE) to minimize grid-connected electricity generation cost as well as to satisfy nominal electricity demand and CO2 emission … …American Journal of Engineering and Applied Sciences, Vol. 5, Issue 1 · 28 Feb 2012 · 8,695 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titleFuel and Greenhouse Gas Emission Reduction Potentials by Appropriate Fuel Switching and Technology Improvement in the Canadian Electricity Generation SectorFarshid Zabihian, Alan S. FungProblem statement: In recent years, Greenhouse Gas (GHG) emissions and their potential effects on global climate change have been a worldwide concern. According to International Energy Agency (IEA), power generation contributes more than half of the global GHG emissions. Approach: Purpose of this study is to examine GHG emission reduction potentials in the Canadian electricity generation sector through fuel switching … …American Journal of Engineering and Applied Sciences, Vol. 3, Issue 1 · 31 Mar 2010 · 8,031 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titleApplication of the Ant Colony Search Algorithm to Reactive Power Pricing in an Open Electricity MarketA. Ketabi, A. Ali BabaeeDeveloping an accurate and feasible method for reactive power pricing is important in the electricity market. In conventional optimal power flow models the production cost of reactive power was ignored. In this study, the production cost of reactive power was comprised into the objective function of the OPF problem. Then, using ant colony search algorithm, the optimal problem was solved. … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 6, Issue 5 · 31 May 2009 · 7,261 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titleOptimal Bidding Strategies for a Small Generation Company in a Day-Ahead Electricity Market with Bilateral Contracts Taken into AccountAzmi Saleh, Takao Tsuji, Tsutomu OyamaProblem Statement: Deregulation power systems have been force to change their structures, from vertically integrated to open market systems. Each generation company (Genco) is required to compete with rivals through bidding in a pool market and making a bilateral contract with a distribution company (Disco) or consumers to maximize its own profits. A unit commitment becomes responsible for each Genco … …American Journal of Engineering and Applied Sciences, Vol. 2, Issue 1 · 31 Mar 2009 · 7,708 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titleOptimal Bidding Strategies for Generation Companies in a Day-Ahead Electricity Market with Risk Management Taken into AccountAzmi Saleh, Takao Tsuji, Tsutomu OyamaProblem statement: In a competitive electricity market with limited number of producers, Generation Companies (Gencos) is facing an oligopoly market rather than a perfect competition. Under oligopoly market environment, each Genco may increase its own profit through a favorable bidding strategy. The objective of a Genco is to maximize its profit and minimize the associated risk. In order to achieve … …American Journal of Engineering and Applied Sciences, Vol. 2, Issue 1 · 31 Mar 2009 · 8,233 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titleOptimal Production Planning of Electricity from Coal-Fired Power Plant Networks under Environmental ConsiderationsHabib H. Al-Ali, Yousef Saif, Ali Elkamel, Ali LohiIn this study, electricity production from a network of coal power plants and under environmental constraints is considered. Several pollutants are incorporated into the decision planning process including nitrogen oxides (NOx), sulfur oxides (SOx) and mercury (Hg). A Nonconvex Mixed Integer Nonlinear Programming (MINLP) model was first developed to assist in the evaluation process. An exact linearization of the nonconvex … …American Journal of Engineering and Applied Sciences, Vol. 1, Issue 4 · 31 Mar 2008 · 7,070 accessesView PDFCite
