This study simulates and economically optimizes the THIOPAQ® biological desulfurization process for biogas from sugarcane residues using Aspen Plus and particle swarm optimization. Bagasse-derived biogas yielded the lowest cost (~621.66k US…

Abdelmeguid N

This study models how US-Israel-Iran geopolitical escalation affects Egyptian utility-scale solar PV investment via CAPEX and WACC channels. Baseline LCOE of 4.62 US cents/kWh rises to 7.06 cents (+52.9%) under severe combined stress. Finan…

Kocabey S, Dursun SÜ

This study models grid-connected and off-grid hybrid renewable systems (PV, wind, biogas) for a large educational building in Türkiye using HOMER. The least-cost grid-connected option (Grid/PV/Biomass) reaches 70% renewable fraction at $0.1…

Sanghani J, baldania PA

India's renewables reached ~288.6 GW (162.2 GW solar) by mid-2026, shifting the binding constraint from generation capacity to evacuation and flexibility. About 300 GWh was curtailed in Q1 2026 from transmission limits alone, with over 50 G…

Sepahvand M, Mir A, Mehrdad V

This study proposes hybrid deep learning frameworks combining LSTM, Transformer, and Ant Colony Optimization for solar power time-series forecasting. The LSTM-TF-ACO model achieves the best accuracy (MAE 2.878%) under Nadam optimization, an…

Giannini G

This WEC-Pro deliverable sets out an R&I agenda and roadmap for applying Large-Format Additive Manufacturing (LFAM) to marine renewable energy devices such as wave and tidal converters. It contrasts LFAM's tool-less, scalable, circular prod…

Taheri, Nabi, Gaspar, João Miguel Pereira, da Silva, Manuel Pio Cruz +1

A structured review of 259 re-screened records (181 core evidence) on renewable curtailment, organized around physical/operational/institutional drivers, forecasting and decision-support methods, and mitigation pathways. It frames curtailme…

Noora Alsulaiti, Hissa Al-Buainain, Dhabya Al-Quraishi +4

A geospatial study assessing rooftop solar PV potential for decarbonizing a university campus in a hot-arid environment. It quantifies usable roof area and irradiance to estimate generation and decarbonization contribution, offering a repli…

Chi Wei Su, Yiwei Hu, Linjie Liu +2

An empirical study examining how multiple uncertainties (e.g., economic policy, climate, market) jointly and dynamically affect net electricity generation from renewables. It tests whether uncertainty stimulates or restrains renewable outpu…

Marlon Farmer, Dillon Ramsook, Sharona Mohammed +3

This study designs and optimizes a residential PV system for Trinidad and Tobago using HomerPro, testing sensitivity to subsidized and unsubsidized electricity rates. At current subsidized rates renewables are uneconomic, but viability emer…

Muhammad Afnan Arif, Fumitaka Furuoka

Using a 2015–2024 panel of 28 European countries (270 country-year observations), this paper tests whether renewable electricity generation lowers wholesale power prices. It compares nine dynamic panel estimators, eight published benchmarks…

Sandhya Rani Swain, Upasana Yadav

Solar PV is central to the energy transition, but full life-cycle sustainability must include end-of-life impacts. This review shows that trace metals (Cd, Pb, Cr, Ni, Ag) in PV modules can leach into freshwater via mechanical failure, floo…

Venkatesh Daggupati

This study tests Virtual Reality as an educational medium for promoting photovoltaic (PV) adoption in Austria. Building on baseline findings from an existing VR app (KaisergasseVR), the authors developed SolarPowerVR, which lets users manip…

MOHAMMED HAMIDU

This review assesses Nigeria's solar energy potential and its role in cutting greenhouse gas emissions toward near-zero emissions. Despite abundant sunlight, utilization remains grossly low; solar power can supply remote and off-grid areas …
