• Can Brazil become a green hydrogen powerhouse? 

      Kelman, Rafael; Gaspar, Luana de S.; Geyer, Florian S.; Nobrega Barroso, Luiz Augusto; Veiga Pereira, Mario (2020-11-01)
      This paper assesses the feasibility of green hydrogen production in Brazil. By green hydrogen, it is meant the hydrogen produced by the electrolysis of water by consuming electricity produced by renewable sources. The ...
    • Measuring the hydroelectric regularization capacity of the Brazilian hydrothermal system 

      Bezerra, Bernardo Vieira; Nobrega Barroso, Luiz Augusto; Brito, Marcelle; Porrua, Fernando; Flach, Bruno C.; Veiga Pereira, Mario (Sin editorial (Minneapolis, Estados Unidos de América), 2010-07-25)
      The storage capacity (or “regularization capacity”) of a hydro system refers essentially to its capability of transferring excess inflow energy from wet to dry seasons. The Brazilian hydro power system is formed by hundreds ...
    • Recent advances of sugarcane biomass cogeneration in Brazil 

      Granville, Sergio; Lino, Priscila Rochinha; Ralston, Francisco; Nobrega Barroso, Luiz Augusto; Veiga Pereira, Mario (Sin editorial (Calgary, Canadá), 2009-07-26)
      The integrated sugarethanolelectricity production has launched a new business model-the bioelectricity industry-with a potential to become a ldquomainstreamrdquo energy supply option in the near future in Brazil. Besides ...
    • Stochastic long-term hydrothermal scheduling with parameter uncertainty in autoregressive streamflow models 

      Bezerra, Bernardo Vieira; Veiga, Alvaro; Nobrega Barroso, Luiz Augusto; Veiga Pereira, Mario (2017-03-01)
      The optimal scheduling of hydrothermal systems requires the representation of uncertainties in future streamflows to devise a cost-effective operations policy. Stochastic optimization has been widely used as a powerful ...
