The document complements a separate analysis of the opportunities for hydrogen transport applications. There are a number of drivers for consideration of fuel cells in stationary power applications at Heathrow. Key drivers include: • Reduction of CO2 emissions – Fuel cells offer the potential to reduce Heathrow’s CO2 emissions through more efficient heat and power generation. • Air Quality improvement – Use of fuel cells produces fewer NOx and particulate emissions, compared to incumbent systems. • Reliability and availability – Fuel cells can outperform batteries and gensets in certain critical back-up applications. • Low noise – Noise pollution is a significant issue at Heathrow. Fuel cells offer very quiet operation compared to incumbent gensets. • Integration with waste processing – Fuel cells could deliver benefits as part of an integrated waste management system at Heathrow • Synergy with transport applications – Adoption of hydrogen in both stationary and transport applications could be mutually beneficial 3 Introduction: Potential applications There are a range of potential applications around Heathrow where fuel cells could play a role: Prime and back-up power – diesel gensets are currently employed in a number of back-up power applications and there is interest in use of on-site generation in a peak-shaving mode (i.e.

  • Increasing the Efficiency of Existing Coal-Fired Power Plants
    Increasing the Efficiency of Existing Coal- Fired Power Plants Richard J. Campbell Specialist in Energy Policy December 20, 2013 Congressional Research Service 7-5700 www.crs.gov R43343 Increasing the Efficiency of Existing Coal-Fired Power Plants Summary Coal has long been the major fossil fuel used to produce electricity. However, coal-fired electric power plants are one of the largest sources of air pollution in the United States, with greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions from burning of fossil fuels believed to be the major contributor to global climate change. Regulations under development at the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) would impose new requirements on fossil-fueled (mostly coal-fired) power plants (CFPPs) to control GHG emissions. The first of these requirements was issued in September 2013 with proposed standards for the control of carbon dioxide (CO2) emissions from new electric generating units burning fossil fuels. EPA’s proposals for control of GHG emissions from existing power plants are expected by June 2014, with many options under consideration. EPA may target emissions on a state or plant-by-plant basis, with companies likely given choices for compliance. Within such a system, efficiency improvements can be an important contributor. The overall efficiency of a power plant encompasses the efficiency of the various components of a generating unit. Minimizing heat losses is the greatest factor affecting the loss of CFPP efficiency, and there are many areas of potential heat losses in a power plant. Efficiency of older CFPPs becomes degraded over time, and lower power plant efficiency results in more CO2 being emitted per unit of electricity generated.

  • On Energy Demand by Wolf Hafele
    SCIENTIFIC AFTERNOON LECTURE AT THE 21st GENERAL CONFERENCE OF THE INTERNATIONAL ATOMIC ENERGY AGENCY VIENNA, SEPTEMBER 1977 On Energy Demand by Wolf Hafele Introduction Since the energy crisis, a number of energy plans have been proposed, and almost all of these envisage some kind of energy demand adaptations or conservation measures, hoping thus to escape the anticipated problems of energy supply. However, there seems to be no clear explanation of the basis on which our foreseeable future energy problems could be eased. And in fact, a first attempt at a more exact definition of energy demand and its interaction with other objectives, such as economic ones, shows that it is a highly complex concept which we still hardly understand. So it may be appropriate to explain in some detail why it is so difficult to understand energy demand. Energy Flow Schemes Figure I shows the flow of energy through the economy of the Federal Republic of Germany in 1975 in millions of tons of coal equivalent, or gigawatt years. By far the largest share of the primary energy undergoes a conversion into forms of energy that are more convenient and more easily handled, which are called secondary energy. Electricity and gasoline, the most prominent examples, are transported to the consumer. The largest consumer sector is households and commercial activities, consuming 45% of all secondary energy; industry follows with 36%, and transportation with 14%. The use of secondary energy also leads to conversion losses, which are as high as 56%. Besides these principal lines of energy flow in Figure 1, there are numerous other thinner lines and sidelines that cannot simply be overlooked in a discussion of energy demand and its future evolution.
