The multi-energy system co-planning of nearly zero-energy districts – Status-quo and future research potential
TL;DR: This review focuses on the multi-energy system co-planning in nearly zero-energy districts and examines several research gaps, such as investigating the influence of temporal resolution in multi- energy system models, integration of spatial and topological details of districts, detailed distributed-technology models, accurate network models, and integrating the transportation sector.
Journal ArticleDOI
A review of thermochemical energy storage systems for power grid support
TL;DR: In this paper, a comprehensive review of the state of art of theoretical, experimental and numerical studies available in literature on thermochemical thermal energy storage systems and their use in power-to-heat applications is presented with a focus on applications with renewable energy sources.
Journal ArticleDOI
A framework for assessing the technical and economic potential of shallow geothermal energy in individual and district heating systems: A case study of Slovenia
Gašper Stegnar,D. Staničić,Matjaz Cesen,J. Čižman,S. Pestotnik,J. Prestor,A. Urbančič,Stane Merše +7 more
TL;DR: In this article, the authors proposed a framework for identifying the shallow geothermal energy potential of new individual and district heating (DH) systems, where the main criteria for analysis are ground temperature, thermal conductivity, heat flow, and heat capacity.
Journal ArticleDOI
Potential and methods for increasing the flexibility and efficiency of the lignite fired power unit, using integrated lignite drying
Halina Pawlak-Kruczek,Łukasz Niedźwiecki,Michał Ostrycharczyk,Michał Czerep,Zbigniew Plutecki +4 more
TL;DR: In this article, the problem of improving the flexibility and efficiency of the power unit on the example of a brown coal-fired unit including the option of low-temperature pre-drying of lignite is discussed.
Journal ArticleDOI
Formation and continuation of thermal energy community systems : An explorative agent-based model for the netherlands
TL;DR: In this article, an agent-based model has been developed that explores four seemingly trivial factors, namely: neighborhood size, minimum member requirement, satisfaction factor and drop-out factor, to study factors that influence the formation and continuation of thermal energy communities.
