Efficient cogeneration and district heating systems in bioenergy villages: an optimization approach

Socioeconomic potential for introducing large-scale heat pumps in district heating in Denmark

“…Thereby, the plants become able to deliver new electricity system services by cooperating on bidding in the electricity markets. Karschin and Geldermann (2015) also focus on the fuel efficiency of using CHP for heat production recognising the availability of biomass resources as a parameter in planning for systems based on RE.…”

A multi-fuel management model for a community-level district heating system under multiple uncertainties

“…oil or coal), the heating system with BHSs can effectively reduce the greenhouse gas (GHG) and air-pollutant emissions [5,57]. Nevertheless, the air-pollutant emission measuring may be a tough task due to the uncertainties lying in the associated factors, such as meteorological conditions, fuel quality, pollutant removal equipments, and operational conditions [58,59].…”

Assessing the potential contribution of excess heat from biogas plants towards decarbonising residential heating

“…In the latter case, the existing DHN and the buildings to be connected must be known. Karschin & Geldermann (2015) present an optimisation model which determines the location and capacity of a bioenergy plant and the associated DHN. Possible locations are defined beforehand as the locations of the plant.…”

“…In many cases, the studies do not address the applicability of the methods to large-scale problems with many heat suppliers and it can be assumed that the models are not suitable for this purpose (Casisi et al 2009;Dobersek & Goricanec 2009;Karschin & Geldermann 2015;Marty et al 2018). In addition, the studies show that the investigation of small-scale problems with the applied methods already leads to computational and time restrictions and is therefore not suitable for large-scale applications (Chinese 2008;Fazlollahi et al 2014;Yılmaz Balaman & Selim 2016).…”
