An optimization algorithm is proposed in this paper to solve the economic dispatch problem that includes wind farm using the Chaotic Quantum Genetic Algorithm (CQGA). In addition to the detailed models of economic dispatch introduction and their associated constraints, the wind power effect is...

This paper provides a set of specific examples to show the effectiveness of the trigeneration CO2emission reduction (TCO2ER) indicator proposed in the companion paper (Part I: Models and indicators) to assess the greenhouse gas (GHG) emission reduction from cogeneration and trigeneration...

The diffusion of cogeneration and trigeneration plants as local generation sources could bring significant energy saving and emission reduction of various types of pollutants with respect to the separate production of electricity, heat and cooling power. The advantages in terms of primary energy...

Road transport today is responsible for a significant and growing share of anthropogenic emissions and energy consumption. This paper attempts to address the possible policy measures to reduce the energy consumption and mitigate the harmful emissions, especially greenhouse gas (GHG) from China's...

Due the advances in the industrial processes, in which the cement industry is a major contributor, energy consumption and greenhouse gas emission has increased significantly. This paper reviews previous studies on energy saving, carbon dioxide emission reductions and the various technologies...
