(Corresponding) Štefanica J., Zakuciová K., Kočí V., Šerešová M., Vlček Z., Vitvarová M., Opatřil J.
Topic:
Energy technologies and sustainability
Environmental impacts of various types of energy production are compared in the scope of an ongoing national research project “Life Cycle Assessment of Energy Production”. The project is using the LCA method to compare the potential environmental impacts of selected energy sources throughout their...Read more
The aim of this paper is to analyse time series that might have an impact on prices of energy commodities. Analysis and econometric modelling reveal which time series are corelated and how. This is input for further modelling of forecasting tool for electricity and gas prices (in near future)...Read more

The effect of catalysts MnO2, activated carbon and fly ash on the performance of single-chamber Microbial Fuel Cells
(Corresponding) Tremouli A., Kamperidis T., Pandis P., Stathopoulos V., Ieropoulos I., Argirusis C., Lyberatos G.
Topic:
Environmental biotechnology and bioenergy
Microbial fuel cells (MFC) are bioelectrochemical systems that convert the chemical energy contained in waste to electricity, using bacteria as catalysts. In order to boost the power output of MFCs, various approaches are feasible. This study examines the effect of using MnO2, activated carbon and...Read more
Electricity generators in the European Union emissions trading system: definitional aspects in the light of a judicial decision
(Corresponding) Tzouvaras N.
Topic:
Carbon market
The "electricity generator" definition (introduced through Directive 2009/29/EC, based on electricity sale and effective since 1.1.2005) is significant within the European Union greenhouse gases Emissions Trading System (ETS). Established through Directive 2003/87/EC, ETS currently (2021-...Read more
