Hydrogen, when based on renewable electricity, can play a key role in the transition towards CO2-neutral industrial production, since its use as an energy carrier well feedstock various process routes is promising. At same time, large-scale roll-out of hydrogen for would entail substantial impacts system, which only be assessed if regional distribution future demand considered. Here, we assess technical potential hydrogen-based technologies energy-intensive industries Germany. The...
Bottom-up energy models can support strategic decision-making and help to manage an efficient transition a low-carbon system. The manufacturing industry accounted for about 19% of EU-wide greenhouse gas emissions in 2014, which underlines the importance this sector model-based decarbonisation assessments. This paper describes methodology FORECAST model. is bottom-up simulation model used develop long-term scenarios future demand industry, services household sectors. In study, we discuss...
District heating can play a decisive role in the transformation to climate-neutral building sector, replacing fossil fuels. Renewable and excess heat potentials for district are often spatially limited consistent EU-wide analysis of is not yet available. In this paper, we quantify renewable that could supply future areas entire EU. We combine different data sets with high spatial resolution conduct matching. Subsequently, cluster results individual derive representative types. The show...
Energy-intensive industries across the EU-28 release unused heat into environment. This excess can be utilized for district heating systems. However, this is exception today, and potential contribution to decarbonization of not well quantified. An estimation heat, based on industrial processes, spatial matching areas necessary. We present a georeferenced database with annual production potentials at different temperature levels matched current possible areas. Our results show total 960 PJ/a...
Excess heat from industrial processes can be utilized in district heating networks, thereby reducing the primary energy demand and possibly CO2 emissions for generating heating. Numerous studies found a substantial potential of excess heat, but have not systematically considered future changes system that will affect its utilization potential. Industrial production is set to transform low-carbon needs generated without use fossil fuels. We quantify using spatial matching EU-27, considering...
Recovery of heat and water during expiration is an important but not yet fully understood function the nose. The presented study investigated cooling expiratory air for recovery within human nose applying numerical simulation. A simulation in a bilateral three-dimensional model based on computed tomography was employed. Temperature distribution airflow patterns were displayed. Cooling primarily takes place areas inferior middle turbinate. Areas highest decrease temperature are characterized...
District heating will play an important role in the transition towards climate-neutral heating. Various studies on modelling energy system show that district and related expansion of networks can have different levels importance. A main reason is costs for distribution grid are not well or at all considered empirical evidence a threshold cost-effective missing such studies. In this paper, we aim to improve allowing representation future systems models. For that, current status analysed high...
