As natural gas is not uniformly distributed in different regions of the world, and gas tanks are concentrated in specific geographical areas, gas transfer is a key gas-related industry that greatly contributes to the expansion of this energy…
In this research, we utilize Southern California (SoCal) natural gas transmission pipelines and underground storage resources for transporting and storing hydrogen gas for a 100% renewable energy penetration. The goal is to determine to what extent…
The fluctuation of wind and solar power is one of the important constraints on their development. It is generally believed that hydrogen production using renewable energy and applying the in-service natural gas pipelines to transport hydrogen-natural…
Transportation sector in Pakistan has been rapidly growing, leading to an increase in diesel and petroleum consumption, heightened energy import bill, air pollution, and traffic congestion. The China-Pakistan economic corridor (CPEC) is a cluster of…
Power fluctuations caused by Photovoltaics (PV) prevent the penetration of large-scale PV power into the grid as it causes multiple instabilities such as frequency deviations, voltage fluctuations, and decreased output power quality. Additionally, it…
A novel project solution for large-scale hydrogen application is proposed utilizing surplus wind and solar generated electricity for hydrogen generation and NG pipeline transportation for hydrogen-natural gas mixtures (called HCNG). This application…
Electrical energy source in Malaysia is commonly from by fossil fuel such as coal, petroleum, LNG, LPG, kerosene, etc. However, these unrenewable sources of energy are neither economical nor favorable to the environment. Even though Malaysia produces…
High degree of variability are introduced in a power distribution network due to the integration of decentralized renewable power sources (RES) that requires new solutions to assure the power quality with appropriate energy management. One solution…
In modern heat transfer systems, thermal storage not only causes the balance between demand and supply, but also improves the heat transfer efficiency in these systems. In the present study, a comprehensive review of the applications of micro- or…
Phase change materials (PCMs) have received substantial interest for their ability to store and release latent heat for energy conservation and thermal control purposes. PCMs are available in a variety of latent heat and melting points but their…
Aided by the phase change material (PCM) with high thermal storage density, latent heat thermal energy storage (LHTES) technology may provide a solution to the energy supply-demand dilemma, e.g. LHTES in solar energy utilization and waste heat…
Concentrating solar power (CSP) plants have been widely commercialized for generating electricity from solar energy. Thermal energy storage (TES) systems have been deployed as a key component in CSP plants for resolving the supply-demand gap during…
This paper concerns the ongoing studies on a Concentrated Solar Power (CSP) plant in operation in Ottana (Italy), comprising a 629 kW organic Rankine cycle (ORC) unit fed by a linear Fresnel solar field. Hexamethyldisiloxane (MM) and "Therminol SP-I"…
The inherent variable property of solar generation and uncertainty of solar generation forecasting are two crucial challenges for utility grid operators in interconnected power system. Nowadays grid connected distributed photovoltaic solar generation…
Petroleum industry produces a bulky rate of harmful environmental wastes. Recycling of these wastes to produce added value products is of prim importance. In this work, Synthesis of sodium 4-dodecyl benzene sulfonate (SDBS) anionic surfactant from…
The addition of hydrogen derived from renewable power to the natural gas network is being promoted as a viable means of storing excess wind and solar energy. However, the changes in combustion properties of the natural gas upon hydrogen addition can…
This paper outlines one of the first efforts by a major oil and gas company to build a net-exporting, behind-the-meter solar photovoltaic (PV) plant to lower the operating costs and carbon intensity of a large, mature oil and gas field. The 29 MWAC…
This paper presents a novel system of adding clean hydrogen to the natural gas for more effective and more efficient combustion. The proposed system includes a wind-photovoltaic hybrid system where both wind and solar energy sources are…
Energy is present in every touch we make in our modern life. However, with the increase of energy-consuming devices, there is a burden to meet this demand with a clean power generation. Although solar and wind are considered as clean and renewable…
Electrical energy source in Malaysia is commonly from by fossil fuel such as coal, petroleum, LNG, LPG, kerosene, etc. However, these unrenewable sources of energy are neither economical nor favorable to the environment. Even though Malaysia produces…
