Technological innovations in decarbonisation strategies: A text-mining approach...
Costa, P. M.; Duarte, A.; Tomé, P.; Bento, N.; Fontes, M.This study presents a novel, multifaceted approach to evaluating decarbonisation technologies by integrating advanced text-mining tools with comprehensive data analysis. The analysis of scientific documents (2011–2021) and mapping 368 technologies from the IEA’s Energy Technology Perspectives identified 41 technology domains, including 20 with the highest relevance and occurrence. Domain readiness was assessed ...
Identifying promising domains of decarbonization technologies: An improved meth...
Costa, P. M.; Tomé, P.; Duarte, A.; Bento, N.; Almeida, B.Humanity has sought ways to decarbonize the economies and mitigate the effects of global warming. The scientific community has been producing intensive research on decarbonizing technologies and strategies. This article introduces an improved methodology, based on two available text-mining software, to identify the most relevant domains of decarbonizing technologies presented in scientific papers, research proj...
A bibliometric based analysis to identify promising domains of decarbonisation ...
Costa, P. M.; Tomé, P.; Almeida, B.; Bento, N.The high volume of research outputs related to technologies and strategies for decarbonisation can make it challenging to understand the relevance of the presented proposals. In this paper, a bibliometric-based analysis is proposed to understand better the domains and subdomains of decarbonisation technologies that have given more attention by the scientific community. The results show that carbon capture techn...
Greater than the sum: On regulating innovation in electricity distribution netw...
Marques, V. M.; Costa, P. M.; Bento, N.To modernise distribution networks and enable the energy transition, we need to understand the most appropriate regulatory approach to incentivise the adoption of technology innovations in the grid. An increasing set of new technologies have positive externalities beyond the provision of basic network activities or improvement of the quality of service. These technologies provide an additional value for the tra...
Accelerate energy transition with smarter regulation for faster grid digitaliza...
Marques, V.; Costa, P. M.; Bento, N.This paper aims to improve the understanding about the most appropriate regulatory approaches to incentivize the adoption of the new technology innovations needed to modernize the distribution networks and enable the energy transition. There is a large set of new technologies, such as technologies related to advanced metering infrastructure (smart metering and communication), substation and feeder automation an...
The impact of regulation on a firm's incentives to invest in emergent smart gri...
Costa, P. M.; Bento, N.; Marques, V.This paper analyzes the implementation of new technologies in network industries through the development of a suitable regulatory scheme. The analysis focuses on Smart Grid (SG) technologies which, among others benefits, could save operational costs and reduce the need for further conventional investments in the grid. In spite of the benefits that may result from their implementation, the adoption of SGs by net...
Environmental risk assessment in a contaminated estuary: an integrated weight o...
Caeiro, Sandra; Fernandes, Ana Paula; Martinho, Ana Paula; Costa, P. M.; Silva, M. J.; Lavinha, J.; Dias, Carlos Matias; Machado, A.; Castanheira, I.Environmental risk assessment of complex ecosystems such as estuaries is a challenge, where innovative and integrated approaches are needed. The present work aimed at developing an innovative integrative methodology to evaluate in an impacted estuary (the Sado, in Portugal, was taken as case study), the adverse effects onto both ecosystem and human health. For the purpose, new standardized lines of evidence bas...
Estimativa da área foliar em diferentes estados fenológicos baseada em descrito...
Costa, P. M.; Poças, I.; Alves, S.; Pereira, M.; Carvalho, S. M. P.; Cunha, M.A área foliar (AF) é uma variável fundamental para a fotossíntese, transpiração, e produtividade. Métodos expeditos e não destrutivos para a estimativa da AF ao longo do ciclo de produção são necessários para o desenvolvimento de modelos ecofisiológicos e apoiar práticas culturais, tais como a aplicação de fitofármacos e gestão da água. Existem diversos modelos para a estimativa da AF, mas por terem sido desenv...
Estimativa da área foliar em diferentes estados fenológicos baseada em descrito...
Costa, P. M.; Poças, I.; Alves, S.; Pereira, M.; Carvalho, S. M. P.; Cunha, M.A number of models for estimating leaf area (LA) are available in the literature, but these were frequently developed for a specific phase of the production (generally the harvest). This study aimed at estimating the LA in different phenological stages using non-destructive allometric measurements of cut rose cv 'Red Naomi' grown in soilless system. A statistical model was developed based on the following allom...
The "Smart Paradox": stimulate the deployment of smart grids with effective reg...
Marques, V. M.; Bento, N.; Costa, P. M.The concept of SG (Smart Grids) encompasses a set of technologies that raise the intelligence of the electrical networks, such as smart meters or instruments of communication, sensing and auto-correction of networks. Nevertheless, the cost is still an important obstacle for the transformation of the current electricity system into a smarter one. Regulation can have an important role in setting up a favorable fr...
