If textile professionals do not match the desired shade and quality of fabrics with the use of minimal resources the energy cost will be multiple times higher. This study investigates the change in the shade of fleece knitted fabrics from the dyeing unload to the finish stage and assumes a dyeing recipe adjustment, focusing on the impact of optimized dyeing and finishing processes. Also, it focuses on qualitative changes in properties across various color variations. Identical dyeing recipes for light, medium, and dark shades of red, blue, and navy. Properties such as GSM (grams per square meter), width, color strength, shade (darker/lighter, red/green, blue/yellow), shrinkage, spirality, pilling, bursting strength, and color fastness were analyzed. Dyeing to post-finishing, an increase in color strength (K/S) values was observed, with examples including minimum increases from 2.9 to 3.18 for light red and maximum from 19.3 to 22.9 for dark navy shade. Darker shades (DL*) were observed after stenter 1st pass (among all variants, red: 1.2 % to 8.1 %, blue: 4.5 % to 6.7 %, navy: 1.6 % to 2 %), while lighter shades (DL*) were observed following sueding and napping (among all variants, red: 3.1 % to 19.7 %, blue: 11.8 % to 19.7 %, navy: 14.8 % to 27.6 %).

These findings offer valuable guidance for dyeing professionals aiming to achieve the desired adjustment of shades that match the quality standard and produce sustainable fleece fabrics.

CPE measures how the quantity demanded of one energy source responds to a change in the price of another, while MES assesses the sensitivity of the ratio between two energy inputs to price changes. A Seasonal Autoregressive Integrated Moving Average (SARIMA) model is employed to forecast energy substitution dynamics, offering robust predictive accuracy. The average MES between clean energy and thermal power is 0.663, indicating a moderate substitution relationship, with the effect more pronounced in summer. Additionally, the mean MES between hydropower and new energy generation is 2.067, reflecting a strong substitution effect between these two clean energy forms. Furthermore, the SARIMA model shows a mean squared error (MSE) as low as 0.0006 in some cases, demonstrating its robust predictive accuracy in forecasting energy substitution dynamics.

In the evaluation of the proposed method, the effectiveness is assessed using the metrics of Mean Absolute Error (MAE) and Root Mean Squared Error (RMSE). The dataset employed for this investigation comprises eight input parameters and one output variable, representing the battery RUL. In conducting an analysis, the performance of the PSO<img>NN model is compared with hybrid NN with Cultural Algorithm (CA-NN) and Harmony Search Algorithm (HSA-NN), as well as the standalone Autoregressive Integrated Moving Average (ARIMA). Upon examination of the findings, it becomes evident that the PSO<img>NN model outperforms the alternatives with an MAE of 2.7708 and an RMSE of 4.3468, significantly lower than HSA-NN (MAE: 22.0583, RMSE: 34.5154), CA-NN (MAE: 9.1189, RMSE: 22.4646), and ARIMA (MAE: 494.6275, RMSE: 584.3098).

Inaccurate forecasts can lead to a mismatch between wind power generation and energy demand, resulting in wasted energy, increased emissions, and reduced grid stability. Therefore, improving the accuracy of wind power generation forecasting is essential for optimizing energy storage and grid management, reducing the reliance on fossil fuels, decreasing greenhouse gas emissions, and promoting a more sustainable energy future. This study proposes an innovative approach to enhance wind power generation forecasting accuracy by leveraging the strengths of metaheuristic algorithms for feature selection and integrating them with Neural Networks (NN). Specifically, five distinct algorithms - Genetic Algorithm (GA), Particle Swarm Optimization (PSO), Ant Colony Optimization (ACO), Teaching-Learning-Based Optimization (TLBO), and Evolutionary Mating Algorithm (EMA) - are integrated with NN model to identify optimal feature subsets from a comprehensive dataset of 18 diverse features. The results show that the GA consistently outperforms other algorithms in selecting the most influential features, leading to improved precision in wind power predictions. Notably, the GA achieves the best root mean square error (RMSE) of 37.1837 and the best mean absolute error (MAE) of 18.6313, outperforming the other algorithms and demonstrating the importance of feature selection in improving the accuracy of wind power forecasting.

Accurately quantifying these indirect GHG emissions typically requires life cycle assessments, which are often resource-intensive and impractical during the early stages of energy system design. This study introduces operational GHG emissions as a pragmatic metric for the preliminary assessment of energy carrier environmental impact in building heating applications.
