“…CCS and low-carbon technology concepts are relatively new to the country. There is an urgent need for solutions in dealing with carbon emissions [7,8]. EGAT is assessing the feasibility of a post-combustion carbon separation system to capture CO2 from exhaust gases, enabling existing power plants to be retrofitted with minimal changes.…”

The objectives of this study are to evaluate the technical and cost implications of retrofitting post-combustion Carbon Capture and Storage (CCS) in existing coal-fired power plants in Thailand, with a special focus on the Mae Moh plant managed by the Electricity Generating Authority of Thailand (EGAT). We undertake a detailed analysis using AspenPlus simulation models to determine the optimum capture cost per ton of CO2 and to examine the effects of various flue gas loads on CO2 capture performance and cost-effectiveness. The research reveals a key operational insight: as the flow rate of flue gas increases, the cost to capture a ton of CO2 decreases, indicating economies of scale in CCS operations. Furthermore, the study explores the potential for integrating solar photovoltaic (PV) technology as a renewable energy source, which shows promise in lowering Thailand's power sector emissions and operational costs. By comparing the levelized cost of electricity (LCOE) for solar PV against conventional coal-fired power generation and considering the country's favorable geographic and climatic conditions, solar PV emerges as an economically viable and environmentally sustainable alternative. The findings of this research aim to inform strategic energy policy decisions in Thailand, advocating for a transition to more sustainable energy systems and emphasizing the balance between environmental responsibility and economic feasibility.

“…Accordingly, the source used in our homes and workplaces in central heating systems started as fuel oil and continued to change to coal and natural gas. It is known that 30%-40% of existing resources are consumed throughout the life cycle of buildings, and there is a parallel relationship with the increase in carbon emission rates [1]. Türkiye aims to be a carbon-neutral country by 2053.…”

Energy, which has an important position both in the world and in Türkiye, is essential for many primary areas, such as heating-cooling and production. After the industrial revolution, replacing simple machines with steam engines started the adventure of energy dependence and gave strategic energy importance. This situation has played a critical role in reshaping human history. In addition, due to the limited fossil energy resources and the continuous increase in energy costs, countries have started to develop new energy policies for their interests. Thus, scientists have accelerated their work in the field of energy efficiency. District heating systems, one of the best examples of renewable energy use, are the main subject of this study. District heating can be defined as the heating of a building, neighborhood, or city with power plants installed in one or more centers. This study aims to calculate the financial benefit of the district heating systems to be created with the use of geothermal resources in Türkiye to the Türkiye economy and its contribution to the goals of carbon neutrality. As a result of the use of a geothermal-sourced district heating system, a 1.58% reduction will be achieved in Türkiye's annual greenhouse gas emissions. With current investment amounts, the amortization period of 1,000,000 residential equivalent geothermal sourced district heating system implementation is approximately 13 years. Numerical methods were used in this study.
