In this context, the potential of solar photovoltaics (PV) has been highlighted in recent years due to their low-emission intensity compared to other renewable sources, highly regarded economic prospects, and unprecedented global growth of installations. Considering Iran's power crisis in terms of the mismatch between production and consumption and a worsening of the environment due to high-carbon power, this paper presents the assessment of the environmental and economic viability of a 10 MW on-grid solar PV plant to improve energy security and sustainability. First, the carbon intensity (CI) and levelized cost of energy (LCOE) of electricity generated in the power industry in Iran in comparison with the global status is discussed. Then, the environmental aspects of different types of PV inverter modulus and panels are assessed by utilizing the life cycle assessment approach, to select the optimum design in terms of CI. Finally, the economic scenarios are analyzed in terms of LCOE and the sensitivity analysis on the availability factor. The combined environmental-economic assessment results of the case solar power plant with CI of 63.9 tCO<sub>2</sub>/GWh and LCOE of 11 $/MWh offers deep insights into the financial and environmental performance of solar PVs in the country's sustainable development roadmap and highlights the importance of regulatory policies, absorbing green climate funds, and investment in the expansion of solar systems to enable the decarbonization of electricity as an important measure for sustainable development.</p>","PeriodicalId":11673,"journal":{"name":"Energy Science & Engineering","volume":"13 7","pages":"3541-3550"},"PeriodicalIF":3.5,"publicationDate":"2025-04-22","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/epdf/10.1002/ese3.70112","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"144615277","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"工程技术","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

As a result, the search for renewable alternatives has gained serious attention. Microalgae provide a sustainable alternative for biofuel production, offering high growth rates, significant oil yields and productivity, nontoxic nature, higher photosynthesis efficiencies, and the ability to thrive on nonarable land. <i>Chlorella vulgaris</i> and <i>Scenedesmus dimorphus</i> strains were chosen for this study to develop effective harvesting and oil extraction methods for sustainable energy. Three types of harvesting methods are used to optimize slurry yields, viz. flocculation, high-speed refrigerated centrifugation, and microfiltration. Moreover, two oil extraction methods were considered to enhance efficiency: Soxhlet extraction and the direct boiling method. The centrifugation method provides the fastest harvesting rate and highest slurry yields, followed by membrane separation, while flocculation, though slower, is more cost-effective and easier to perform. The direct boiling method optimizes the oil extraction process by effectively rupturing microalgae cell walls. <i>Chlorella vulgaris</i> shows a slurry recovery efficiency of 0.76 g per liter of media by centrifuge, consisting of 12%–40% oil content in overall weight; 12.7% of the oil was extracted using Soxhlet extraction, and 18.7% was extracted using the direct boiling method.

The AGC performance of generation units is crucial for power grids to maintain their electrical energy balance and is of high concern to power plants and power grids. The problem is to estimate the ramp rate and static deviation as two AGC performance metrics from desired and generated active powers. This paper proposes an AGC performance assessment method to address two challenges in estimating the two performance metrics. One challenge is that not all data segments of the desired active power with amplitude variations are suitable for performance assessment. Another challenge is that severe noise induces uncertainties in the estimates of performance metrics. For the first challenge, the proposed method extracts step-pattern data segments, from which dynamic models are identified and performance metrics are estimated from model step responses. For the second challenge, uncertainties of the estimated performance metrics are quantified by confidence intervals obtained from the dynamic models with surrogate parameters. The benefits of the proposed method over the existing ones include: (1) invalid estimates are avoided by selecting step-pattern data segments for AGC performance assessment; (2) the root mean squared estimation errors are reduced by more than 60% in typical examples; (3) the uncertainties in the estimates are quantified by their confidence intervals.

Geological sequestration of these gases in naturally fractured reservoirs (NFRs) is a practical method to reduce greenhouse gas emission. An industrially accepted approach to simulate fluid flow in NFRs is the dual-porosity method; however, this method needs multiple parameters' specifications. The main goal of this study is to develop a dual-porosity model with improved parameters that can be used for simulation of both hydrocarbon gas gravity drainage and acid gas injection in the gas-invaded zone of NFRs. To do so, a single-porosity model, as the reference model, is constructed for a single matrix block (SMB) with which the equivalent dual-porosity model'<i>s</i> (DP) parameters are determined and matched. Then, DP is improved by a dual-porosity vertical discrete (VD) model to consider gravity drainage. This was later enhanced by non-neighborhood connections (NNCs) to account for re-infiltration in stacked matrices, yielding comparable results to the reference CPU-intensive single-porosity simulation. A thorough sensitivity analysis is performed on acid gas injection in VD model. The results show that the most effective parameter is porosity. The permeability and NNC transmissibility only change the rate of acid gas storage and more acid gas is trapped as H<sub>2</sub>S content increases. Also, the heterogeneous distribution of porosity only influences the rate of storage when the mean porosity is constant, while permeability heterogeneity does not affect acid gas storage. The recovery factor is considerably increased to nearly 100% when the acid gas replaces hydrocarbon gas in fractured surrounding. About 7000 kmole of acid gas is stored in SMB over 4.5 years. Similar results are obtained for stacked matrices, and trapped gas is about 22,000 kmole, after 9 years.</p>","PeriodicalId":11673,"journal":{"name":"Energy Science & Engineering","volume":"13 6","pages":"3151-3170"},"PeriodicalIF":3.5,"publicationDate":"2025-04-21","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/epdf/10.1002/ese3.70094","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"144245027","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"工程技术","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
