A wind–diesel system with hydrogen storage: Joint optimisation of design and dispatch

Garcia, Raquel S.; Weisser, Daniel - In: Renewable Energy 31 (2006) 14, pp. 2296-2320

We compare two models to determine the size of grid units and dispatch in a wind-diesel power system with hydrogen storage. Both take as data 1-year time series of hourly wind speed and electricity demand, and their objective is to minimise cost. Our first model, based on linear programming,...

Estimation of the efficiency of Japanese hospitals using a dynamic and network data envelopment analysis model

Kawaguchi, Hiroyuki; Tone, Kaoru; Tsutsui, Miki - In: Health Care Management Science 17 (2014) 2, pp. 101-112

The purpose of this study was to perform an interim evaluation of the policy effect of the current reform of Japan’s municipal hospitals. We focused on efficiency improvements both within hospitals and within two separate internal hospital organizations. Hospitals have two heterogeneous...
