With solar energy, we distinguish usually two conversion types: solar thermal, solar PV (or photovoltaic solar energy) In this study we are focusing more on solar thermal energy. Solar thermal energy is the process where solar radiation is converted into thermal energy. The most common system is the solar water heater system (SWHS). The water is […]
Since a few centuries, mankind is able to use the wind power through the wind mills. As from the mid seventies, modern wind turbines have been developed with the aim to produce clean electricity. Technology for wind energy has tremendously advanced the last years, leading to (Ecofys BV 2006): Larger wind turbines Blades manufactured from […]
Geothermal resource consists of underground layers or springs that contain water with a temperature level which is enough to gain useful forms of energy. Usually, the water is heated through the higher temperatures in the earth core. The water temperate level can be used in the buildings for heating with low temperature directly or […]
Hydropower is a form of renewable energy that captures the potential energy of flowing water to convert it into electricity. A distinction is made between: Run-off river systems, where (a part of) the river flow is captured and led along a turbine. Pumped storage hydropower, where a lake is used as storage system in order to use […]
The term biomass covers a wide variety of both fuel and conversion technologies. Usually, the term biomass refers to woody or agricultural products being converted into useful energy through different conversion technologies (Ecofys BV 2006). Biomass often refers to solid materials such as wood, branches, industrial wood waste, urban solid waste and agricultural residues (agriculture […]
Albania is one of the Mediterranean countries.
