This study develops an integrated model to quantify the employment effects of biomass co-firing retrofitting for coal plants and to explore its optimal ratio. We also modified a plant-level carbon emission calculation method to analyze the trade-off between carbon emissions and social benefits. Our results indicate that when the blend rate of coal and biomass exceeds 90%, there are noticeable changes in job creation. However, the maximum job creation value is negative, suggesting that biomass co-firing technology is not an effective choice for achieving a just transition during the large-scale coal phase-out process, and it is less competitive compared to renewable energy. Additionally, we find that generation efficiency is linearly negatively correlated with the blend rate. Moreover, carbon emission intensity and job intensity are positively correlated linearly, while there is a nonlinear negative correlation between job intensity and the blend ratio. Overall, biomass co-firing appears insufficient for a just transition in coal phase-out, indicating a need for regionally adaptive blend ratios for optimal operation.</div></div>","PeriodicalId":56019,"journal":{"name":"Sustainable Energy Technologies and Assessments","volume":"75 ","pages":"Article 104246"},"PeriodicalIF":7.1,"publicationDate":"2025-03-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"143520584","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":2,"RegionCategory":"工程技术","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Lignocellulosic wastes, primarily CR stands out the most efficient biomass source for biomethane production because of their abundant availability, high carbon/nitrogen ratio and low ash content.

Subsequently, the reviewed literature was presented in tabular format, categorized according to CSP plant configuration, subsystem, and technology purpose. The findings indicate lack of available data to perform accurate inventories, and a lack of harmonization of the Life Cycle Impact Assessment methodologies. The results revealed that the most analyzed impact category was climate change, with values averaging 50 g CO<sub>2</sub>, eq/kWh. There is a need for more LCA investigations about dish-Stirling and Linear Fresnel plants, as well as investigations analyzing other impact categories. Many studies in the CSP LCA domain are directing their attention towards thermal storage, however, the environmental impact of the decommissioning of plants has not yet been thoroughly analyzed. It has been observed that SimaPro is the preferred LCA software by the authors, together with Ecoinvent as database. The literature review revealed a gap in knowledge in LCA studies addressing operational challenges such as corrosion or fatigue, emerging solutions, and updated inventory data, presenting an opportunity for researchers to enhance the market viability of CSP technologies by addressing these deficiencies.

The findings indicate that the voltage and average power increase with increasing fundamental frequency only at low resistance for single frequency excitation.
