Abstract. An assessment of current and future emissions, air concentrations, atmospheric deposition mercury worldwide is presented on the basis results obtained during performance EU GMOS (Global Mercury Observation System) project. Emission estimates for were prepared with main goal applying them in models to assess (2013) (2035) concentrations this contaminant. The combustion fossil fuels (mainly coal) energy heat production power plants industrial residential boilers, as well artisanal...
The investment costs of water electrolysis represent one key challenge for the realisation renewable hydrogen-based energy systems. This work presents a technology cost assessment and outlook towards 2030 alkaline electrolysers (AEL) PEM (PEMEL) in MW to GW range taking into consideration effects plant size expected developments. Critical selected data was fitted modified power law describe an electrolyser based on overall capacity learning/technology development rate derive estimations...
Energy storage systems are required to address the fluctuating behaviour of variable renewable energy sources. The environmental sustainability technologies should be carefully assessed, together with their techno-economic feasibility. In this work, an analysis a hydrogen-based system has been performed, making use input parameters made available in framework European REMOTE project. is applied case study Froan islands (Norway), which representative many other insular microgrid sites...
Remote locations and off-grid regions still rely mainly on diesel generators, despite the high operating costs greenhouse gas emissions. The exploitation of local renewable energy sources (RES) in combination with storage technologies can be a promising solution for sustainable electrification these areas. aim this work is to investigate potential decarbonizing remote islands Norway by installing RES-based systems hydrogen-battery storage. A national scale assessment presented: first,...
Several measures are available for reducing mercury emissions; however, these differ with regard to emission control efficiency, cost, and environmental benefits obtained through their implementation. Measures that include the application of technology, such as technology remove from flue gases in electric power plants, waste incinerators, smelters, rather expensive compared nontechnological measures. In general, dedicated removal is considerably more than a co-benefit strategy, using air...
Chemical Looping Combustion (CLC) is a promising CO2 capture option since it inherently separates from other flue components, theoretically with low energy penalty. Here, Life Cycle Assessment model was developed of theoretical hybrid CLC (HCLC) power plant facility utilising experimental data for CuO based oxygen carrier (OC) production and capacity. Power models without post-combustion capture, recognised as the most mature technology, acted environmental performance targets. Results show...
obtained through combining different approaches, and aiming at contributing to the understanding of effects bioethanol fuelled vehicles on urban air quality, are evaluated. The study is based results by measurements, modelling cost assessment estimates in a case Oslo under winter conditions, when worst quality episodes registered acetaldehyde formaldehyde have longest lifetime. Detailed levels emitted an E95-bus on-road driving conditions reported for first time, indicate that exposure these...

Abstract In 2021, the Norwegian fishing fleet emitted approximately 855 000 tonnes of carbon dioxide-equivalents, which accounts for 1.3% total emissions in Norway. Converting to zero and low emission fuels is one measures that can significantly reduce GHG fleet. This study investigates possibilities using hydrogen ammonia-fed fuel cells powering a coastal vessel (a 13 m longliner). The part project where several stakeholders research industrial entities collaborated. General arrangements...
