Impact of Grid Gas Requirements on Hydrogen Blending Levels
Oct 2021
Publication
The aim of the article is to determine what amount of hydrogen in %mol can be transferred/stored in the Estonian Latvian and Lithuanian grid gas networks based on the limitations of chemical and physical requirements technical requirements of the gas network and quality requirements. The main characteristics for the analysis of mixtures of hydrogen and natural gas are the Wobbe Index relative density methane number and calorific value. The calculatio Read More
Review of Energy Challenges and Horizons of Hydrogen City Buses
Sep 2022
Publication
This paper discusses fuel cell electric vehicles and more specifically the challenges and development of hydrogen-fueled buses for people accessing this transportation in cities and urban environments. The study reveals the main innovations and challenges in the field of hydrogen bus deployment and identifies the most common approaches and errors in this area by extracting and critically appraising data from sources important to the energy Read More
Techno-economic Feasibility of Hybrid PV/wind/battery/thermal Storage Trigeneration System: Toward 100% Energy Independency and Green Hydrogen Production
Dec 2022
Publication
With the clear adverse impacts of fossil fuel-based energy systems on the climate and environment ever-growing interest and rapid developments are taking place toward full or nearly full dependence on renewable energies in the next few decades. Estonia is a European country with large demands for electricity and thermal energy for district heating. Considering it as the case study this work explores the feasibility and full potential of optimally sized photo Read More
Comparative Analysis of the Alternative Energy: Case of Reducing GHG Emissions of Estonian Pilot Fleet
Feb 2025
Publication
The FuelEU Maritime Regulation part of the European Union’s (EU’s) Fit for 55 initiative aims to achieve significant reductions in greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions within the maritime sector. This study assesses the feasibility of alternative fuels for the Estonian pilot fleet using a Well-to-Wake (WtW) life cycle assessment (LCA) methodology. Operational data from 18 vessels sourced from the Estonian State Fleet’s records were analyzed including technic Read More
