Decarbonizing hard-to-abate sectors with renewable hydrogen: A real case applic...
Sousa, Jorge A. M.; Azevedo, Inês; Camus, Cristina Inês; Mendes, Luís; Viveiros, Carla; Barata, FilipeHydrogen produced from renewable energy sources is a valuable energy carrier for linking growing renewable electricity generation with the hard-to-abate sectors, such as cement, steel, glass, chemical, and ceramics industries. In this context, this paper presents a new model of hydrogen production based on solar photovoltaics and wind energy with application to a real-world ceramics factory. For this task, a no...

Ensino a distância com recurso a MOOC para a capacitação ambiental
Miranda, Sandra; Almeida-Silva, M.; Sarreira, Pedro; Camus, Cristina Inês; Monteiro, Ana; David, Alexandra; Manteigas, Vítor; Abreu, RenatoO contínuo desenvolvimento das tecnologias de informação e comunicação (TIC) reorganizaram o modo como vivemos, comunicamos e aprendemos. Para as instituições de ensino superior, as TIC potenciaram o crescimento das modalidades do ensino a distância e a abertura de novos ambientes de aprendizagem, com recurso à educação digital. Como exemplo, os MOOC ganharam protagonismo a partir do movimento da educação abert...
Renewable energy communities optimal design supported by an optimization model ...
Sousa, Jorge A. M.; Lagarto, João; Camus, Cristina Inês; Viveiros, Carla; Barata, Filipe; Silva, Pedro; Paraiba, OrlandoThe EU Renewable Energy Directive 2018/2001 (RED II) has unlocked the participation of local citizens and authorities in collective renewable energy projects through the concept of Renewable Energy Communities (REC). In this context, the present study proposes an optimization model to support REC's investment decisions on the renewable generation portfolio and operational electricity sharing management.The mode...
PV panel for self-consumption in public buildings
Monteiro, Ana Catarina; Camus, Cristina Inês; Eusébio, EduardoNowadays, it is imperative to use renewable energy as a source for electricity generation. Energy production by self-consumption and lower costs photovoltaic (PV) panels has created a market for an increase in distributed PV generation. A self-consumption unit may waste almost all-day production if it doesn't match consumption and if there are no batteries in the system. In this case, most part of the energy ge...
Metaheuristic approach to the Holt-Winters optimal short term load forecast
Eusébio, Eduardo; Camus, Cristina Inês; Curvelo, CarolinaElectricity short-term load forecast is very important for the operation of power systems. In this work a classical exponential smoothing model, the Holt-Winters with double seasonality was used to test for accurate predictions applied to the Portuguese demand time series. Some metaheuristic algorithms for the optimal selection of the smoothing parameters of the Holt-Winters forecast function were used and the ...
Technical and economic assessment of energy from Tidal Currents
Páscoa, Isabel; Camus, Cristina Inês; Eusébio, EduardoThe present work aims to study the feasibility of deploying a farm of sea current turbines for electricity generation in Portugal. An approach to the tides, which are they, how they are formed, its prediction, is held. It is also conducted a study about the energy of sea currents and it is presented some technology about ocean currents too. A model of tidal height and velocity of the currents it is also develop...

Renewable energy in Islands: an integrated proposal for electricity generation ...
Marques, Patrícia; Silva, Énia; Camus, Cristina Inês; Eusébio, EduardoThe purpose of this article is to analyse and evaluate the economical, energetic and environmental impacts of the increasing penetration of renewable energies and electrical vehicles in isolated systems, such as Terceira Island in Azores and Madeira Island. Given the fact that the islands are extremely dependent on the importation of fossil fuels - not only for the production of energy, but also for the transpo...
