Modeling the Performance of Amorphous Silicon in Different Typologies of Curved Building-integrated Photovoltaic Conditions

A Comparative Analysis of Solar Energy Strategies in Middle East with Rich Fossil Resources

“…In general, the average irradiation in this nation is approximately 10 hours, which might be a decent ranking from the point of view of irradiation in the globe. Obviously, the middle of this nation has high humidity and a substantial dust particle concentration [31] . In 2009, the UAE government established its first significant policy in the area of RET, and in its vision, it set a goal of at least 7% of the city of Abu Dhabi's electrical capacity came from RET sources in 2020 [32,33].…”

“…Moreover, with the actualization of energy costs in Turkey at the end of 2012, the trend of attractiveness and interest in investing in the area of RET has been reevaluated. Alternatively, the natural potential of this nation has garnered considerable interest in the subject of RET [43]. Obviously, these numbers were rather intriguing in 2010, when the percentage of RET in total consumption was 1%, while other fuels such as oil accounted for 26% and coal for 31%.…”

The Strategy of Energy Democracy and Sustainable Development: Policymakers and Instruments

“…It is administered by the IRS, renewable bonds are sold to coops and gov'ts that collect tax credits rather than interest payments. In 2021, Portugal, issued a $12 million bond which also funded the acquisition of a 7.4 MW hydroelectric facility and earlier bond commitments, providing for 100% renewable power use [66].…”

“…The potential for decentralized renewable generation to join independent grids enables consumers to have access to an equitable allocation of resources under distributed ownership [69,70]. An integrated micro grid, which links renewable energy, transmission, and distributed storage, and smart loads in clearly delineated geographical regions, electrical, and perhaps hydro systemic boundaries, will be owned and operated by those it serves [71]." The micro grids are responsive, diverse, reduce the need for transmission and distribution power, and enable them to be available or islanded as required.…”

Thermal Performance and Heat Dynamics Energy and Exergy of Integrated Asphalt Collector Storage: Sources of Thermal Energy, and Thermoelectric Energy

“…Annual daily effective heat gain and system efficiency were 9,5 MJ/m 2 and 58.29 percent, respectively. Also considered as a possible solar water heater shape was a cylindrical solar water heater [4]. Utilizing a cylindrical solar heater, researcher assessed the factors influencing the heater's performance, feces holding tank [5].…”
