3D Modelling Tool to Optimise Advanced Plasmonic Luminescent Solar Devices for Building Integrated Photovoltaic Applications
(Trinity College Dublin. School of Engineering. Disc of Civil Structural & Environmental Eng, 2019)This research concentrates on modelling and optimisation of a static building integrated PV (BIPV) component in which both direct and diffuse solar radiation are harvested through luminescent solar (LS) devices. Plasmonic ... -
The Environment Review 2012
(ESRI, 07/06/2012)The Environment Review 2012 presents projections of environmental emissions covering the period to 2030. The projections, which are based on current policies, provide a baseline of projected emissions (e.g. greenhouse ... -
Hydropower Energy Recovery from Water Supply Networks Using Pump-As-Turbines: Optimal Selection, Prediction of Global Efficiency, Economic Viability and Large-Scale Resource Assessment
(Trinity College Dublin. School of Engineering. Disc of Civil Structural & Environmental Eng, 2021)It is well documented in the literature that the drinking water sector is among the most energy intensive sectors in developed countries. This is because all processes involved in their operation such as extraction, treatment ... -
Investigation of Phosphorescent Materials for Photovoltaic Device Applications
(Trinity College Dublin. School of Engineering. Disc of Civil Structural & Environmental Eng, 2019)Phosphorescence is used in photovoltaic devices by embedding phosphorescence species within a transparent host polymer to absorb ultraviolet solar radiation followed by a slow emission of visible light. Phosphorescent ... -
Power in The Wind
(Trinity College Dublin. School of Law. Discipline of Law, 2018)Employing the uncertain pursuit of Ireland's 2020 renewable electricity target as a case study, this thesis examines the role of law, policy and regulation in the promotion and development of wind energy. Specifically, ... -
Short-term wind power forecasting: standardization, evaluation and optimization of prediction uncertainty
(Trinity College Dublin. School of Engineering. Disc of Civil Structural & Environmental Eng, 2022)This thesis reports on research aimed at enhancing our understanding on wind power forecasting by investigating and proposing standards to evaluate such forecasts, quantifying the main sources of forecast error, and ...
