The need of efficient electric transmission systems, the rise of renewable energy production, and the development of battery storage systems have driven the adoption of Modular Multilevel Converters (MMC), which offer better performance than conventional converters. However, the diagnosis of...

Coal properties are important factors affecting the coal pyrolysis heat absorption. In this work, thermogravimetric-differential scanning calorimetry (TG-DSC) method was used to measure the pyrolysis heat absorption of 20 coal samples with different degrees of coalification, including anthracites...

Full electric vessels can benefit from hybrid energy storage systems (HESS) that combine two storage technologies of different characteristics in terms of power and energy density. The optimal design of a HESS for a vessel is generally a rather complex multivariable optimization with several degrees...

CO₂ capture from industrial clusters and multi-source industrial sites can reduce costs and facilitate large-scale implementation through shared infrastructure. However, since multiple clustering strategies are possible, a key question arises: when and how should CO₂ capture be clustered? While...

In Europe, most of the CO₂ that needs to be captured is expected to be stored offshore due to the lack of social acceptability for onshore CO₂ storage. This means that in the coming decades, infrastructure to transport several hundred million tonnes of CO₂ from coastal locations to offshore storage...
