This paper investigates ammonia-powered multi-generation systems that produce electricity and freshwater concurrently, assessing their role in advancing the low-carbon energy transition. It likely evaluates system efficiency, environmental …

Rafael Leal-Arcas

This introductory chapter argues that sustainable energy transitions require a shift from top-down governance to citizen-led, bottom-up participation. Citizens and 'prosumers' are presented as emerging actors driving decentralization, democ…

Rafael Leal-Arcas

Examines smart grid development and its implications for energy governance and citizen participation in the EU context. Analyses how smart grids support decarbonization and consumer empowerment while introducing risks around data governance…

JEC-TR-59012:2026 defines a standard specification for power energy services that manage distribution grid congestion and voltage via group control of distributed energy resources (DER). It specifies technical requirements for coordination …

Gilon, Thomas, Rüdt, Daniel, Usher, Will +1

This training presentation covers the basics of posing an economic dispatch problem using parameters, variables, constraints, and an objective function. It distinguishes between frameworks, models, and modelling workflows, then introduces t…
