Hence, 60 kgH2 power supply. total electrical produce all generated from photovoltaic solar energy, considering three-generation scenarios (minimum, maximum annual average). In...

Chile and Brazil have been historically recognised in South America for having a high share of renewable sources their primary energy matrices. Furthermore, the last two decades, aligned with global efforts to conduct sustainable transition, both countries experienced successful introduction nonconventional power production. Nevertheless, some experiences demonstrated be not entirely societally environmentally friendly, as local human communities ecosystems are threatened, conflicts emerged,...

The mining industry is characterized by a high consumption of energy due to the wide diversity processes involved, specifically transportation ore slurry via pipeline systems. This study investigates relationship among variables that define system minimize power requirements and increase sustainability. indicator (I), criterion used for assessment three different pumping layouts, was computed numerical simulation. Optimization response I carried out through statistical technique in design...

Chile has an immense renewable energy potential but their integration in the system constitutes a major challenge. The complex topography of country, isolation different electric grids and variability sources, makes transmission from locations with high variable power generation to demand centres not easy task. present study aims at assessing combining solar power, wind storage systems provide steady loads already source. Such combination should take advantage complementarity between sources...

Providing energy to areas isolated from the electricity grid through use of a smart integrated renewable system (SIRES) is proposed in this study for Valparaiso, Chile.
