The Future

The future of European energy is moving towards a single European electricity market and an increasing share of renewables in the overall production mix. After the expiration of governmental incentive measures, power plants based on renewable energy sources will enter the liberalized market, where electricity prices will largely depend on the production of renewable energy sources. In order to achieve the maximum possible profit of the power plant under such conditions, it is necessary to consider the possibility of investing in solutions that are less represented today, but with the prospect of being more profitable in the future. Such a solution is a solar power plant consisting of vertically placed bifacial modules whose active surfaces are oriented in the east-west direction. This configuration of the power plant can achieve higher production in periods of high prices, and thus higher profits from the sale of electricity. On the other hand, such a solution is more expensive than a standard solar power plant with monofacial modules. In this paper, a comparison of return on investment in a bifacial power plant and a monofacial power plant with existing and prospective market conditions is performed. PVsyst software was used to analyze the solar potential and production profiles of photovoltaic power plants. The influence of solar power plant production on the price of electricity was investigated on the example of Germany. Based on this research, a prognostic model of the daily price diagram on the unified European market until 2040 was formed which served for the analysis of the profitability of investments in the two considered variants of the solar power plant realization.

After the expiration of governmental incentive measures for renewable energy sources integration, economic feasibility of investing into solar power plants will highly depend on compatibility between production and variable prices. In order to achieve the maximum possible profit of the power plant in liberalized electricity market, it is necessary to consider the possibility of investing in solutions that are not common today, but with the potential of being more profitable in the future. Such a solution is a solar power plant consisting of vertically placed bifacial modules whose active surfaces are oriented in the east-west direction. This configuration of the power plant can achieve higher production in periods of high prices, and thus higher profits from the sale of electricity.

AbstractRenewable energy sources have been placed as the key to facilitating to provide source of electricity generation. Solar power is one of the most preferable one among renewable energy sources due to the easy to generate in suitable environment. However, there are concerns with the location of solar power plants installation which causes low efficiency and ineffective use. Hence, determining the location for the usage of solar power sources is critical to mitigating those concerns. In addition, Turkey has been focused on investments on sustainable renewable energy sources and there are few studies which work on cities to reveal potential sources. In this study, GIS and intuitionistic fuzzy set based multi-criteria decision-making method is proposed for determining the most suitable areas for solar energy power plant potential site selection in Erzurum province, Turkey. Firstly, a solar energy power plant potential site selection map is made using a GIS program along with considering ecological risks and ecological criteria. Secondly, 20 districts of Erzurum are investigated in terms of 10 criteria (slope, aspect, solar irradiation, land use, wind speed, air temperature, air pressure, air humidity, land surface temperature and transmission line) using intuitionistic fuzzy sets. In these parameters the first time we looked the land use surface. The land use surface is affected the efficiency of the solar power plant. Finally, the comparisons of two methods are done to check consistency of results obtained. The results indicate that both approaches achieve same areas as the most suitable locations for solar power plants installations for Erzurum province in Turkey. The aim of this work is first to investigate possible locations for solar power plant installation using a mapping method, GIS, and then, Intuitionistic Fuzzy is applied to the problem to obtain optimum areas for solar energy. Also, more accurate results are provided comparing results of two methods, GIS and Intuitionistic Fuzzy. The results expose that 25,065.3 km2 for solar power plant suitable for solar power plan installation.

In recent years, the vast penetration of renewable energy sources has introduced a large degree of uncertainty into the power system, thus leading to increased trading activity in the continuous intra-day electricity market. In this paper, we propose an agent-based modeling framework to analyze the behavior and the interactions between renewable energy sources, consumers and thermal power plants in the European Continuous Intra-day (CID) market. Additionally, we propose a novel adaptive trading strategy that can be used by the agents that participate in CID market. The agents learn how to adapt their behavior according to the arrival of new information and how to react to changing market conditions by updating their willingness to trade. A comparative analysis was performed to study the behavior of agents when they adopt the proposed strategy as opposed to other benchmark strategies. The effects of unexpected outages and information asymmetry on the market evolution and the market liquidity were also investigated.

The paper presents the analysis of different types of impact the hydroelectric power plants’ reservoirs could make on the environment. Hydroelectric power plants (HPP) produce ecologically safe energy and correspond to the modern striving for sustainability because they are operated on renewable energy sources. At the same time they can provoke various potential dangers for the environment. The objective of the investigation is to demonstrate the interrelation between the type and structure of a hydroelectric power plant and the way its reservoir may impact on the nature surrounding the plant. These effects may be direct and indirect, positive and negative and vary from insignificant that can be easily fixed to those that are irreversible and catastrophic. The latter should be taken into account during the design of HPP.

<p><strong>Abstract.</strong> Today, countries are shifting their energy policies towards to renewable energy sources. The main reasons for this can be summarized as the reduction of fossil fuel resources, resulting in cost increase and their harmful effect on the ecological balance. Since renewable energy sources are both economical and eco-friendly, for countries which have high solar energy potential such as Turkey, it is reasonable to direct their energy policies to solar energy which is a renewable energy source.</p><p>In this study, the development of renewable energy legislation in Turkey, from past to present has been examined and implementation steps for the licenced and unlicensed generation of electricity from solar energy have been introduced. Ten impact factors have been identified as the first step for the implementation of the solar power plant site selection in Istanbul, which was determined as the pilot region. Impact factors weighted using Analytical Hierarchy Process (AHP) method. Concurrently, the weights of these determined impact factors were compared with the weights obtained by evaluating the results of the “Evaluation of Solar Energy Power Plant Site Selection Factors” survey conducted during the study. After obtaining the weights, the relevant data were collected and the necessary analyses were performed with the help of the GIS software and the most suitable places were provided for the solar power plant for Istanbul.</p>

Abstract The electricity sector in Europe and in the world is undergoing rapid and profound changes. There is a sharp increase in the capacity of renewable energy sources, coal and nuclear power plants are being closed and new technologies are being introduced. Especially rapid changes are taking place in the energy systems of the Baltic States. Under these conditions, there is an emerging need for new planning tools particularly for the analysis of the power system properties in a long-term perspective. The main contribution of this article lies in the formulation and solution of optimization problems that arise when planning the development of power systems in the Baltic States. To solve this problem, it is necessary to use models of various power plants and make a number of assumptions, the justification of which requires the following actions: to briefly review the current situation of the production and demand of energy in the Baltic power systems; to conduct an overview of the Baltic interconnections and their development; to make forecasts of energy prices, water inflow, energy production and demand; to set and solve the problems of optimization of power plant operation modes; to demonstrate the possibility and limitations of the developed tools on the basis of real-life and forecast data. In this paper, a case study is performed using the main components of the overall modelling framework being developed. It focuses on the Baltic power systems in 2050 under the conditions of significant expansion in the installed capacity of renewable energy sources (RESs) and diminished fossil fuel power plant activity. The resulting electricity generation mix and trade balance with neighbouring countries is assessed, showing that even with significant RES expansion, the Baltic countries remain net importers and because of the intermittency of RESs, there are hours within the year when the demand cannot be met.

Technical Specifications

The use of alternative energy sources, in particular solar energy, has gained rapid growth in recent years. This trend is prompting manufacturers of equipment for solar power plants to increase production volumes. At the same time, the question arises of the disposal of used modules, because each material has its service life. According to technical specifications, the average life of solar modules and batteries is 25-30 years. Decommissioning may occur earlier than this time due to the following reasons – moral and physical deterioration, mechanical damage, replacement of obsolete equipment with new, modernization of solar power plants. Already in 2030, it will be necessary to replace the solar modules installed in 2000. Therefore, there are acute questions not only regarding the development of technologies for processing waste equipment from solar power plants but also organizational and economic methods. This article discusses the main problems that arise during the utilization and recycling of solar modules, analyzes the experience of countries in resolving these issues. After all, the use of renewable energy sources should minimize the negative impact on the environment from energy production at all stages – from the production of equipment for a power plant to the disposal and recycling of this equipment.

Solar energy is considered to be one of most promising renewable energy sources because of its availability and cleanliness. The phenomenon of dust deposition on solar mirrors greatly reduces the power generation of solar power plants. In this work, the motion behaviors and deposition mechanics of dust particles are analyzed by the discrete element method (DEM). The effects of environmental and solar mirror conditions and particle self-factors on dust deposition weight are systematically studied here. The research results show that dust particles, after particle collision, immediately adhere to the mirror or rebound and finally flow away from the mirror, or they otherwise may remain stationary after making some relative motion. Alternatively, they may glide for some distance and finally come to rest on the mirror or leave from the system. Different motion behaviors after particle collision depend on different leading forces. Here, the leading forces are the liquid bridge force (Fc) and the contact force (Fb). When the leading forces are Fc, or Fc, and Fb, the dust particles will be deposited on the solar mirror. Besides, the force Fc cannot be negligible when studying the motion processes of dust particles. The dust deposition weight on solar mirrors can be controlled by altering the environmental and solar mirror conditions, and particle self-factors. In essence, dust deposition weight on solar mirrors decreases when decreasing the leading force Fc or increasing the leading force Fb. The research results give theoretical guidance for the prevention and removal of dust deposition on solar mirrors.

The purpose of the paper is to develop a methodology for multi-criteria selection of the capacity of a group of power plants included in the local power system which use local energy resources and renewable energy sources. To form alternative options for the structure of generating capacities, an approach is proposed. It suggests setting of a number of power levels of the base-load generating plant and power plants using renewable energy sources with subsequent determination of the capacity of the flexing generating plant to cover the remaining part of the load schedule. For multi - criteria comparison of the alternative options of the generating capacity structure, the TOPSIS method is used, which is modified to take into account the uncertainty of the decision-maker's preferences (the modification of the method consists in using fuzzy value functions at the stage of normalizing estimates by criteria). The application of this method is considered on the example of the Okhotsk district of the Khabarovsk territory. The estimated capacity of prospective consumers is 69 MW. Alternative options of the power generation structures include four types of power plants: local coal -fired thermal, solar, wind, and diesel. The multi-criteria comparison of generating capacity structure options is performed using the following criteria: normalized cost of electrical energy, estimation of environmental efficiency, and assessment of public opinion on the consequences of power plant construction. Some of the most promising options for the structure of generating capacities are presented, depending on the values of the weight coefficients of the criteria. If the criterion has the large weight reflecting economic efficiency, the structure with the predominance of thermal power plant energy generation is the best. If the criteria of environmental efficiency and public opinion feature large weight, the best structure is the one with significant generation from a renewable energy source (solar power plant). The coefficients of using the installed capacity of different types of power stations with different structures of generating capacities are determined. It is shown that the proposed methodology provides the obtaining of the options of the generating capacity structure that correspond to expressed preferences, taking into account the uncertainty of the initial information and development scenarios. Promising options for the structure of generating capacities are selected for more detailed further research.
