Nuclear fusion technology is one of the main valuable candidates for providing a trustable base load in low-carbon future energy scenarios, thanks to its power density, low emissions and flexibility, together with innovative ...

Energy poverty was firstly identified as the inability of a household to keep home adequately warm. Since 2001, this issue has been progressively tackled by the different EU Member States with mitigating and structural ...

Carnot batteries store surplus power as heat. They consist of a heat pump, which upgrades a low-temperature thermal energy storage, a high-temperature storage system for the upgraded thermal energy, and a heat engine that ...

Pumped irrigation is a way to improve water control for smallholder farming, hence to intensify its production. In this context, the Dutch company aQysta has developed the Barsha pump (BP), the first-ever commercial version ...

Global food production needs to increase. Such an increase can come from intensified irrigated agriculture. Many current irrigation technologies are energy- and cost-intensive. Providing irrigation services instead of ...

Small gas turbines (up to 40 MWe) are used in combined heat and power (cogeneration) industrial applications as an efficient way to produce both electricity and useful heat. However, due to both the high costs of fuel and ...

The most common application of the supercritical CO2 (S-CO2) power cycle is a Brayton cycle operating between two supercritical pressures. The key idea of this cycle is that the compression process occurs in the vicinity ...

The most common application of the supercritical CO2 (SCO2) power cycle is a Brayton cycle operating between two supercritical pressures. The key idea of this cycle is that the compression process occurs in the vicinity ...
