Hybrid energy systems (HESs) generate electricity from multiple energy sources that complement each other. Recently, due to the reduction in costs of photovoltaic (PV) modules and wind turbines, these types of systems have become economically competitive. In this study, a mathematical programming model is applied to evaluate the techno-economic feasibility of autonomous units located in two isolated areas of Ecuador: first, the province of Galapagos (subtropical island) and second, the province of Morona Santiago (Amazonian tropical forest). The two case studies suggest that HESs are potential solutions to reduce the dependence of rural villages on fossil fuels and viable mechanisms to bring electrical power to isolated communities in Ecuador. Our results reveal that not only from the economic but also from the environmental point of view, for the case of the Galapagos province, a hybrid energy system with a PV–wind–battery configuration and a levelized cost of energy (LCOE) equal to 0.36 $/kWh is the optimal energy supply system. For the case of Morona Santiago, a hybrid energy system with a PV–diesel–battery configuration and an LCOE equal to 0.37 $/kWh is the most suitable configuration to meet the load of a typical isolated community in Ecuador. The proposed optimization model can be used as a decision-support tool for evaluating the viability of autonomous HES projects at any other location.

This paper investigates the potential economic consequences of setting up a capacity market in Poland. A computable model of the Polish power generation system is developed and employed to analyse the impact of this mechanism. Two scenarios are designed for this study: (i) a reference scenario that reflects the energy-only market and (ii) a capacity market scenario that assumes the implementation of such an instrument. To assess the economic consequences, the following parameters are estimated: (i) annual electricity prices, (ii) Loss Of Load Hours, (iii) Expected Energy Not Served, and only for the capacity market scenario: (iv) market clearing price, (v) total budget of the capacity market, and (vi) increase in electricity price due to the introduction of the capacity market. The findings of the study indicate that the long-term maintenance of the energy-only market results in higher electricity prices when compared to putting a capacity market into operation. Introducing a capacity market enables existing resources to be used effectively without excessive capital expenditure. The methods and conclusions presented in this paper provide valuable findings and policy insights regarding the potential economic consequences of a capacity mechanism in a power system mostly dominated by coal and undergoing an energy transition.

Coal gasification has been promoted as a sophisticated clean energy technology alternative to coal burning these days. Aside from the usual technical difficulties, economic issues of such projects—especially valuation challenges—are important problems that practitioners usually struggle with. This is because of the major extent of managerial flexibility linked with specific characteristics of coal gasification projects, in particular, possibilities to mothball/restart manufacturing lines, or change between different outputs. The value of such flexibilities may be well assessed by real options valuations. The aim of this paper is to show that for the coal gasification technologies the real options valuation is more suitable than traditional discounted cash flow technique. This approach was applied to calculate an integrated plant that can produce either electricity or methanol. As the valuation approach the multiplicative stochastic process was used. As a consequence, binomial lattices of end-product (electricity and methanol) were developed. Then, in regard to them (reference instruments), two corresponding lattices of net cash flows (consecutive instruments) were created. In the end, two trees of switching option value were developed—one for electricity production as an initial mode, and the second for methanol production, delivering expanded net present (strategic) value.

The impact of environmental regulations implemented in the power industry that affect the consumption of solid fuels is of key importance to coal-based power generation systems, such as that in Poland. In this context, the main purpose of the paper was to determine the future demand for hard coal and brown coal in the Polish power sector by 2050 with reference to the environmental regulations implemented in the power sector. To achieve these goals, a mathematical model was developed using the linear programming approach, which reflected the key relationships between the hard and brown coal mining sector and the power sector in the context of the environmental regulations discussed. The environmental regulations selected had a great influence on the future demand for hard and brown coal in the power generation sector. The scope of this influence depended on particular regulations. The prices of CO2 emission allowances and stricter emissions standards stemming from the Industrial Emissions Directive and the BAT (Best Available Techniques) conclusions had the largest influence on the reduction of hard coal demand. In the case of brown coal, no new power generating units would be deployed; hence, brown coal consumption would drop practically to zero in 2050 under all the scenarios considered.

Microgrids constitute an attractive solution for the electrification of areas where grid extension is not technically feasible or prohibitively expensive. In recent years, national governments have implemented various support policies to encourage the deployment of renewable energy systems (RES) and microgrid hybrid-powered systems. A fundamental aspect during the design and disposition of these types of units is the determination of the optimal configuration and sizing of each power generation component. Furthermore, the optimal design of microgrids is strongly dependent on technological parameters, local meteorological conditions, among other factors. In this context, this paper investigates the effects of different policy measures on the optimal configuration of microgrids functioning in islanded mode. A computable model is employed to carry out a set of sensitivity analyses and assess the impact of capital and fuel subsidies on the levelized cost of electricity of various systems. The model employed for this study minimizes the total life cycle costs (TLCC) over the 20-year lifetime of the microgrid project. Besides, as meteorological conditions are crucial parameters to consider while designing microgrids, a sensitivity analysis is conducted to examine the effect of wind speed and solar irradiation on the capacities of each distributed generation units. Our results indicate that capital subsidies, as well as fuel price variations, have a substantial effect on the final design of microgrid systems for rural electrification.

The paper presents a holistic and quantitative model of social gamification in a smart city, which is likely to stimulate the photovoltaic panels installation. The coupling of multi-agent systems, GIS tools, demographic data, and a spatial knowledge base made it possible to develop and calibrate a computable model of social interaction in a “model smart city,” as well as to quantitatively evaluate the deployment of photovoltaic panels. It also enabled the analysis of factors affecting the efficiency of this process, e.g., the photovoltaic potential of solar roofs, the ownership of buildings, the type of building development, the level of social trust, institutional and social incentives, and the development of an information society. The devised model is tested on the city of Warsaw, utilizing spatial and descriptive data provided by city authorities.

In the 21st century, energy has become an integral part of our society and of global economic development. Although the world has experienced tremendous technological advancements, fossil fuels (including coal, natural gas, and oil) continue to be the world’s primary energy source. At the current production level, it has been estimated that coal reserves (economically recoverable) would last approximately 130 years (with the biggest reserves found in the USA, Russia, China, and India). The intricate relationship between economic growth, demographics and energy consumption (particularly in countries with coal intensive industries and heavy reliance on fossil fuels), along with the elevated amounts of greenhouse gases in the atmosphere, have raised serious concerns within the scientific community about the future of coal. Thus, various studies have focused on the development and application of forecasting methods to predict the economic prospects of coal, future levels of reserves, production, consumption, and its environmental impact. With this scope in mind, the goal of this article is to contribute to the scarce literature on global coal consumption forecasting with the aid of an artificial neural network method. This paper proposes a Multilayer Perceptron neural network (MLP) for the prediction of global coal consumption for the years 2020-2030. The MLP-based model is trained with historical data sets gathered from financial institutions, global energy authorities, and energy statistic agencies, covering the years 1970 through 2016. The results of this study show a deceleration in global coal consumption for the years 2020 (3 932 Mtoe), 2025 (4 069 Mtoe) and 2030 (4 182 Mtoe).

In order to achieve two main objectives: (1) reduce risk and (2) increase the expected rate of return on invested capital, coal mining and coal trading companies have looked for new ways to improve their supply chain networks. Developments in the supply chain design and analysis have helped coal mining and coal trading companies expand their businesses, but at the same time, have forced them to consolidate their assets and downsize any underused storage facilities. In the coal mining industry, the problem of consolidation and downsizing becomes much more complicated due to the variety in quality parameters (hence many coal grades) involved, locational zones and different number of market players. Furthermore, for the last decade, the storage allocation and assignment problem has received a great deal of attention within the Logistics and Operation Research (OR) area. Yet, little attention has been given to the modeling of coal supply chains and the issue of strategic supply chain planning of coal-producing and coal-trading companies. Similar to the generic warehouse consolidation problem (WCP), in specific cases of coal-producing and coal-trading companies, storage facilities that are redundant or underutilized can be eliminated without causing a negative impact on customer and service levels. In this context, this paper discusses the background of the problem and proposes a mixed-integer linear programming (MILP) model mainly intended for storage and distribution network reconfiguration of a coal-producing or trading company. The model, which can be implemented in a high-level mathematical modelling system such as GAMS or AIMMS, captures the essential methodological features of a warehouse restructuring and/or consolidation problem and can be applied in practice.

This paper reviews the coal policy of Poland. It analyzes the forecasts of production and consumption of hard coal, the size of exports and imports and its importance for the energy sector on the basis of strategic documents. The main aim of the article is to show the role of hard coal in the fuel - energy balance of Poland until 2050. The adoption of appropriate assumptions for each scenario, including the maximum supply of hard coal from domestic mines, coal price curves, CO2emission allowances and several calculations performed allowed to obtain certain results on the basis of which the future role of hard coal was determined.

Precise valuation of the economic efficiency of risky investment projects in the mineral sector has a direct impact on the range of future investments. Since the mid-90s, a number of enterprises have also been giving increased attention to the valuation of managerial flexibility that cannot normally be estimated with classical discounted cash flow (DCF) analysis. This has been the result of a development in the real options analysis (ROA) and the simplification of its algorithms, most of which have been achieved through: ♦ incorporating lattice models, ♦ introducing a single uncertain project parameter (gross present value, PV) as an underlying instrument, ♦ assuming that the underlying asset follows the multiplicative stochastic process, ♦ introducing the ‘marketed asset disclaimer’ (MAD) assumption. Unfortunately, in most cases, models constructed on the abovementioned assumptions and modifications are not consistent with real projects. Some analysts recognize that project PVs might not follow the multiplicative process, which could have a direct impact on the project’s value. In order to improve the MAD approach, the paper proposes a modified model where the multiplicative tree is replaced with an additive one. In addition, methods of ‘additive volatility’ calculation and ‘dividend’ adjustments were suggested.

Streszczenie Analiza opcji rzeczowych stanowi od lat atrakcyjną alternatywę dla podstawowej metodyki oceny efektywności ekonomicznej i wyceny aktywów rzeczowych - analizy zdyskontowanych przepływów pieniężnych DCF. Wśród zasadniczych przyczyn wzrastającego zainteresowania tą metodyką w prze­myśle - w tym w szczególności wydobywczym - jest jej potencjał w zakresie wyceny elastyczności decyzyjnej, związanej z istniejącymi faktycznie możliwościami odkładania przedsięwzięć w czasie oraz modyfikacji zakładanych pierwotnie strategii operacyjnych; takie podejście umożliwia uzys­kiwanie wartości fundamentalnej na poziomie zbliżonym do rynkowego. Fundament teorii opcji stanowi stochastyczne modelowanie zmian aktywów podstawowych tych instmmentów w czasie. Aktualnie preferowana praktyczna metodyka wyceny przedsięwzięć z elastycznością (nazywana podejściem MAD) zakłada, że walor bazowy opcji rzeczowych-wartość bieżąca brutto projektu PV - rozwija się w czasie zgodnie z iloczynowym procesem stochastycznym, stanowiącym dwumianową aproksymację geometrycznego ruchu Browna (GBM). Ponadto przyjmuje się, że instrumentem bliźniaczym aktywów podstawowych, którego istnienie jest niezbędnym warunkiem poprawnej wy­ceny opcji, jest szacowana w analizie DCF wartość zaktualizowana netto - NPV. Niniejszy artykuł dostarcza empiryczne przesłanki, że modelowanie instrumentu PV według standardowego procesu stochastycznego nie odpowiada rzeczywistości. Argumentacja przedstawiona została na przykładzie wyceny górniczego projektu inwestycyjnego z opcją czekania - metodyka obejmowała iloczynowe modelowanie ceny (walor referencyjny), a następnie budowę konsekutywnego drzewa wartości PV, kalkulowanych w wyniku adiustacji przepływów pieniężnych przedsięwzięcia instmmentem referen­cyjnym. Przy okazji zaakcentowano fakt, że walor czekania zmienia strukturę drzew przepływów i wartości bieżącej - w zależności od okresu życia tej opcji. W konkluzji dostarczono argumenty, że konsekutywne formowanie drzewa wartości bieżącej stanowi lepsze odzwierciedlenie świata realnego niż jej bezpośrednie modelowanie w podejściu MAD.

Streszczenie W artykule przedstawiono model matematyczny, który możne być zastosowany do badań i analiz dotyczących zużycia energii pierwotnej w sektorze energetycznym dla różnych struktur rynkowych. Choć problematyka ta była już przedmiotem badań w kontekście regulacji środowiskowych czy postępu technologicznego, według najlepszej wiedzy autora wcześniejsze prace nie omawiały problematyki zużycia paliw pierwotnych w zależności od struktur rynkowych. W artykule sfor- mułowano model matematyczny, który umożliwia takie analizy. Model jest oparty na koncepcji teorii gier - zastosowano podejście Coumota z uwzględnieniem oczekiwanych zmian (Conjectural Yariations - CV). Model został sformułowany jako problem programowania mieszanego komple- mentarnego (Mbced Complementarity Problem - MCP), który szczególnie nadaje się do modelowania systemów paliwowo-energetycznych w kontekście rynkowym. Przyjęto założenie o uwzględnieniu dwóch hurtowych rynków obrotu energią elektryczną, a mianowicie rynku dnia następnego (RDN) oraz rynku bilateralnego (OTC). Model może być zaimplementowany w dowolnym systemie mode- lowania wykorzystywanym do budowy matematycznych modeli systemów paliwowo-energetycz- nych. Oprócz analiz zużycia energii pierwotnej w sektorze energetycznym model będzie mógł być również wykorzystany do analiz ekonomicznych, w szczególności analiz dobrobytu konsumentów i producentów, strat społecznych oraz cen i wielkości produkcji. Badania przedstawione w niniejszym artykule będą kontynuowane, w szczególności w zakresie pozyskania danych i kalibracji modelu. `

Streszczenie Ze względu na ukształtowaną historycznie strukturę paliwową wytwarzania energii elektrycznej w Polsce, podstawowym surowcem energetycznym wykorzystywanym do generacji energii elek- trycznej pozostaje węgiel kamienny i brunatny. Odzwierciedleniem takiej struktury wytwarzania jest odpowiednia struktura kosztów produkcji energii elektrycznej, w której przeważającym składnikiem są koszty pozyskania paliw. Celem artykułu jest opracowanie wstępnej koncepcji modelu matema- tycznego, którego zastosowanie ma prowadzić do redukcji kosztów pozyskania surowców ener- getycznych przedsiębiorstwa energetycznego. |Punktem wyjścia jest analiza kosztów paliwowych w sektorze wytwarzania energii elektrycznej na węglu kamiennym, a następnie analiza ilości po- zyskiwanego węgla oraz jego kosztów na przykładzie dwóch koncernów energetycznych, bazujących przede wszystkim na węglu energetycznym. Koncepcja budowy modelu zakłada jego otwartą architekturę, która pozwoli na dostosowanie zarówno samych założeń modelowych, jak i danych wejściowych do modelu w zależności od zmieniających się warunków rynkowych. Uwzględniono specyficzne uwarunkowania krajowego sektora paliwowo-energetycznego, między innymi konieczność spełnienia wymogów jakościowych węgla spalanego w poszczególnych blokach, możliwe źródła podaży, ze szczegółowym uwzględ- nieniem spółek węglowych zlokalizowanych w Polsce, oraz potencjalne źródła importowe. Założono również możliwość elastycznego doboru rozdzielczości czasowej modelu, w zależności od wymogów zarządczych. Zgodnie z zaproponowaną metodyką, dalsze prace nad modelem matematycznym optymalizującym proces zakupu surowców energetycznych koncernu energetycznego, poświęcone będą transpozycji modelu konceptualnego do postaci matematycznej modelu, a następnie jego imple- mentacji w środowisku modelowania.

The paper presents a computable model of the Polish power generation sector implemented as a Mixed Integer Linear Programming problem. As the optimisation process of power generation systems needs substantial computing resources and normally both specialised knowledge on modelling and expensive modelling systems are required, we decided to make the tool available to the scientific community via the PL-Grid Infrastructure. Consequently, users are allowed to transfer their tasks to computing clusters, hence all of the key numerical calculations are done on the computing clusters of ACC Cyfronet AGH. For interfacing with users we selected the QosCosGrid middleware, which is an efficient programming and execution tool. We present exemplary results based on designed scenario simulations carried out using the developed tool. Some potential improvements, such as transposition to a non-linear model, are also proposed for the future.

An in-depth analysis of the energy consumption and CO2 emissions of the European glass industry is presented. The analysis is based on data of the EU ETS for the period 2005–2007 (Phase I). The scope of this study comprises the European glass industry as a whole and its seven subsectors. The analysis is based on an assignment of the glass installations (ca. 450) within the EU ETS to the corresponding subsectors and an adequate matching of the respective production volumes. A result is the assessment of the overall final energy consumption (fuel, electricity) as well as the overall CO2 emissions (process, combustion and indirect emissions) of the glass industry and its subsectors in the EU25/27. Moreover, figures on fuel mix as well as fuel intensity and CO2 emissions intensity (i.e. carbon intensity) are presented for each of the subsectors on aggregated levels and for selected EU Member States separately. The average intensity of fuel consumption and direct CO2 emissions of the EU25 glass industry decreased from 2005 to 2007 by about 4% and amounted in 2007 to 7.8 GJ and 0.57 tCO2 per tonne of saleable product, respectively. The economic energy intensity was evaluated with 0.46 toe/1000€ (EU27).
