Liquid fuels that can be burned either in boilers or compression ignition engines to generate electricity have been the target products. The CO₂ and H₂O produced from combustion are recirculated back to the synthesis units, thus forming a closed cycle of “renewable energy (unstable energy supply) + CO₂ + H₂O → liquid fuels → electricity (stable supply)”. This novel closed loop energy storage process integrated with a 670 MW supercritical power plant was analyzed using the Aspen Plus software package. Methanol was selected as the targeted liquid fuel through three major synthesis routes: CO + H₂, CO₂ + H₂ and CO₂ + H₂O, in which CO and H₂ came from the electrolysis of CO₂ and H₂O. The performances of the three methanol synthesis routes were thermodynamically analyzed. The results show that the optimal methanol synthesis route is the direct conversion of CO₂ and H₂O through electrocatalysis when CO₂ conversion is above 42%, while when CO₂ conversion is below 42% the best choice turned out to be the CO hydrogenation. The direct conversion of (CO₂ + H₂O) using electrocatalysis method was adopted as the liquid fuel synthesis route for the near-zero-carbon-emission power plant. The overall CO₂ emission from the near-zero-carbon-emission power plant is 44.13 kg/MWh accounting for just 6.45% of the advanced coal fired power plant.]]> Sat 24 Mar 2018 07:40:52 AEDT ]]> The determinants of photovoltaic system costs: an evaluation using a hierarchical learning curve model https://nova.newcastle.edu.au/vital/access/ /manager/Repository/uon:25958 Sat 24 Mar 2018 07:36:57 AEDT ]]> China's renewable energy revolution https://nova.newcastle.edu.au/vital/access/ /manager/Repository/uon:22073 Sat 24 Mar 2018 07:17:05 AEDT ]]> A control strategy of battery energy storage system and allocation in distribution systems https://nova.newcastle.edu.au/vital/access/ /manager/Repository/uon:23251 Sat 24 Mar 2018 07:17:02 AEDT ]]> A novel short-term dispatch scheme for wind farm with battery energy storage system https://nova.newcastle.edu.au/vital/access/ /manager/Repository/uon:23459 Sat 24 Mar 2018 07:13:01 AEDT ]]> Renewable energy, CO2 emissions and economic growth in sub-Saharan Africa: Does institutional quality matter? https://nova.newcastle.edu.au/vital/access/ /manager/Repository/uon:43858 Mon 29 Jan 2024 18:49:37 AEDT ]]> Modeling the effect of green technology innovation and renewable energy on carbon neutrality in N-11 countries?

Rather than depicting the current lack of sustainability that comes from estimating a footprint based on uptake of carbon emissions (the method used in EF accounting), our proposed "Renewable Energy Equivalent Footprint" (REEF) instead depicts a hypothetical world in which the electricity and fuel demands are met entirely from renewable energy. The analysis shows that current human energy demands could theoretically be met by renewable energy and remain within the biocapacity of one planet. However, with current technology there is no margin to leave any biocapacity for nature, leading to the investigation of two additional scenarios: (1) radical electrification of the energy supply, assuming 75% of final energy demand can be met with electricity, and (2) adopting technology in which electricity is used to convert atmospheric gases into synthetic fuel. The REEF demonstrates that a sustainable and desirable future powered by renewable energy: (i) may be possible, depending on the worldwide adoption of consumption patterns typical of several key exemplar countries; (ii) is highly dependent on major future technological development, namely electrification and synthetic fuels; and (iii) is still likely to require appropriation of a substantial, albeit hopefully sustainable, fraction of the world's forest area.]]> Fri 30 Apr 2021 10:04:36 AEST ]]> Simulation of a power system with large renewable penetration https://nova.newcastle.edu.au/vital/access/ /manager/Repository/uon:33292 Fri 28 Sep 2018 15:54:22 AEST ]]> Techno-economic analysis of an integrated liquid air and thermochemical energy storage system https://nova.newcastle.edu.au/vital/access/ /manager/Repository/uon:42153 Fri 19 Aug 2022 08:54:41 AEST ]]> How the West was Won?
