Potential Energy Recovery Using Micro‐Hydropower Technology in Irrigation Networks: Real‐World Case Studies in the South of Spain
(MDPI, 2018)
The agricultural sector is one of the most significant users of water resources worldwide.
Irrigation infrastructure has been modernized in recent years in many regions dedicated to
agriculture, transitioning from ...
Reducing the Energy Dependency of Water Networks in Irrigation, Public Drinking Water, and Process Industry: REDAWN Project
(MDPI, 2018)
The EU funded Interreg project REDAWN is presented, setting a new operational
framework for efficiently foster micro‐hydropower in water distribution.
Energy Saving Measures in Pressurized Irrigation Networks: A New Challenge for Power Generation
(MDPI, 2018)
In Spain and other countries, open channel distribution networks have been replaced by on demand-pressurized networks to improve the water-use efficiency of the water distribution systems, but at the same time the energy ...
Pump-as-Turbine Selection Methodology for Energy Recovery in Irrigation Networks: Minimising the Payback Period
(MDPI, 2019)
In pressurized irrigation networks, energy reaches around 40% of the total water costs. Pump-as-Turbines (PATs) are a cost-effective technology for energy recovery, although they can present low efficiencies when operating ...
Energy Recovery Potential in Industrial and Municipal Wastewater Networks Using Micro-Hydropower in Spain
(MDPI, 2021)
The use of micro-hydropower (MHP) for energy recovery in water distribution networks is becoming increasingly widespread. The incorporation of this technology, which offers low-cost solutions, allows for the reduction of ...
An economic and environmental optimization model for sizing a hybrid renewable energy and battery storage system in off-grid farms
(Elsevier, 2024)
This paper presents a model for optimizing the life cycle economic and environmental impacts of a hybrid renewable energy and battery storage system – as energy supply technologies (EST) for off-grid farms. Micro-hydropower ...
