Onshore wind farm siting and energy carrying capacity in the municipality of Aristotle in Chalkidiki – Greece
Drepaniotis I., (Corresponding) Vagiona D.
Topic:
Spatial environmental planning
Wind power is one of the most environmentally friendly Renewable Energy Sources, as well as one of the rapidly growing and economically viable forms of renewable energy. Today's wind turbines can be considered as a mature and cost-effective technology with reasonable efficiency rates and high...Read more

Site selection of hybrid solar/wind renewable energy systems: A case study from Andros, Greece
Bili A., (Corresponding) Vagiona D.
Topic:
Spatial environmental planning
The combination of two or more forms of Renewable Energy Sources at the same spatial scale is a highly promising sector, resulting in an increase in the number of installations of hybrid RES systems. In Greece, where abundant resources such as wind and sun are available, the combination of these...Read more

Support Structure Suitability for Offshore Wind Farms Development in Greece based on a Sustainable Site-Selection Framework
(Corresponding) Spyridonidou S., Vagiona D.
Topic:
Energy technologies and sustainability
Site-selection and spatial planning form a crucial step toward the successful development of Offshore Wind Farms (OWFs). Deployment of wind turbines in different water depths has raised the issue of selection of the most suitable support structures. In this work, a well-structured site-selection...Read more

Technological solutions for giving a new life to power plants of alternative energy: social, economic, and environmental assessment of end of life scenarios
(Corresponding) Ambrosino C., Giaquinto D., Maselli G., Nesticò A., Zarra T., Belgiorno V., Naddeo V.
Topic:
Energy technologies and sustainability
The resources on the planet are not unlimited and special attention has been paid to alternative energies in recent years.
Alternative (or renewable) energy are all those energy sources that do not come from fossil fuels (coal, oil and natural gas). To date, wind and solar energy are the main...Read more

Desalinated Water and Power for a Seaside Hotel: A Case Study using Off-grid Solar and Wind
Tounsi A., Ghamgui M., (Corresponding) Tadeo F.
Topic:
Environmental management and policies
A hybrid combination of solar and wind energies for a remote seaside hotel is analyzed. More specifically, a hotel in Hammamet, Tunisia, powered by photovoltaic panels and a wind turbine is evaluated, with water generated by desalination using reverse osmosis. This isolated accommodation...Read more
Time Evolution of Renewable Energy Applications Social Acceptability. The Wind Energy Case in Decarbonization Areas
Boulogiorgou D., (Corresponding) Kaldellis J.
Topic:
Renewable energy sources
Energy transition policy towards zero carbon electricity generation by 2030/2050 in European as well in national level is based on increased exploitation of Renewable Energy Sources (RES) giving great importance to public opinion and public participation. Considering the above, it is important to...Read more
