Abstract anzeigen
Biomimetics is a known innovation paradigm of the twenty‐first century with significant impact on science, society, economy, and challenges of sustainability. As such, it can be understood as a mindset for creative thinking and as a methodology or technique for effective knowledge transfer between disciplines, mainly biology and technology. As biomimetics is relevant to practitioners in various fields of application, understanding the teaching and training of biomimetics for different audiences is important. With this article, we aim to give a holistic view of teaching and training practices and opportunities. First, we offer a set of learning objectives based on an analysis of various courses worldwide and we give recommendations for the design of future curricula. Second, based on an audience analysis and interviews, we developed a set of personas of the users of biomimetics, and as such, we offer a deeper understanding of their needs for the design of the process, including tools and methods.

A framework for regional smart energy planning using volunteered geographic information
Advances in Geosciences, vol. 54, no. 10 December 2020, pp. 179-193
2020
DOI: 10.5194/adgeo-54-179-2020
Abstract anzeigen
This study presents a framework for regional smart energy planning for the optimal location and sizing of small hybrid systems. By using an optimization model – in combination with weather data – various local energy systems are simulated using the Calliope and PyPSA energy system simulation tools. The optimization and simulation models are fed with GIS data from different volunteered geographic information projects, including OpenStreetMap. These allow automatic allocation of specific demand profiles to diverse OpenStreetMap building categories. Moreover, based on the characteristics of the OpenStreetMap data, a set of possible distributed energy resources, including renewables and fossil-fueled generators, is defined for each building category. The optimization model can be applied for a set of scenarios based on different assumptions on electricity prices and technologies. Moreover, to assess the impact of the scenarios on the current distribution infrastructure, a simulation model of the low- and medium-voltage network is conducted. Finally, to facilitate their dissemination, the results of the simulation are stored in a PostgreSQL database, before they are delivered by a RESTful Laravel Server and displayed in an angular web application.

Abstract anzeigen
In recent years, unmanned aerial vehicles (UAV) of various shapes, sizes and functions have been increasingly used for civilian applications in a wide range of fields. UAVs are flexible, inexpensive, with the ability to carry high resolution sensing systems. UAVs fill the gap between manned aircraft and satellite remote sensing systems. When searching for new methodologies, especially in forestry research, UAVs are a unique platform. Remote forest sensing, forest mapping, forest precise measurement, forest fire monitoring and support for intensive forest management are areas in which remote sensing is fully utilized. The advantages of remote sensing are mainly low material and operating costs, flexible space and time deployment, and high intensity data collection. In order to move remote sensing applications from the experimental phase into real deployment, it is necessary to come up with new methodologies that can be determined using UAVs.

This paper deals with the problem of equipping 100 households in Lower Bavarian with sensors using different interfaces and protocols. This sensor set in the households is used in the context of the research project DeinHaus 4.0 of Deggendorf Institute of Technology. This project focuses on supporting technologies to enable elderly people to live as long as possible in their own house or apartment. Therefore, a set of sensors and Ambient Assisted Living (AAL) technologies are used to build a supporting system. Furthermore, the system collects, anonymizes and stores the sensor data for further technical and social analysis.

Unveiling the potential for combined heat and power in Chilean industry-A policy perspective
Energy Policy, vol. 140, no. May
2020
DOI: 10.1016/j.enpol.2020.111331
Abstract anzeigen
Combined Heat and Power (CHP) has again become a key element in international energy and environmental policy, since it is one of the most promising methods of ensuring grid stability, making an energy system more flexible and environmentally friendly. This is particularly true in the case of Chile, which has an energy system that progressively introduced volatile renewable energy sources such as wind and solar energy. This scenario has led to the development of a new regulatory strategy and CHP flagship projects throughout the country. Despite this interest, there has been no analysis of CHP development or the impact of the latest regulatory changes on its evolution. This study presents an updated cadastre of the CHP facilities as of 2018, together with an analysis of its evolution in terms of an energy policy. From this cadastre, interviews with experts, and a review of the regulations and incentives, the study identifies the main policy barriers for CHP development in Chile. Furthermore, this study presents a series of challenges and recommendations for the country.

Unsupervised grouping of industrial electricity demand profiles: synthetic profiles for demand-side management applications
Energy, vol. 215 (Part A), no. Available online 1 October 2020
2020
DOI: 10.1016/j.energy.2020.118962
Abstract anzeigen
Demand side management is a promising alternative to offer flexibility to power systems with high shares of variable renewable energy sources. Numerous industries possess large demand side management potentials but accounting for them in energy system analysis and modelling is restricted by the availability of their demand data, which are usually confidential. In this study, a methodology to synthetize anonymized hourly electricity consumption profiles for industries and to calculate their flexibility potential is proposed. This combines different partitioning and hierarchical clustering analysis techniques with regression analysis. The methodology is applied to three case studies in Chile: two pulp and paper industry plants and one food industry plant. A significant hourly, daily and annual flexibility potential is found for the three cases (15% to 75%). Moreover, the resulting demand profiles share the same statistical characteristics as the measured profiles but can be used in modelling exercises without confidentiality issues.

Prioritizing the Chicken or Egg? Electric Vehicle Purchase and Charging Infrastructure Subsidies in Germany
Politics and Governance, vol. 8, no. 3, pp. 185-198
2020
DOI: 10.17645/pag.v8i3.3025
Abstract anzeigen
To meet current targets for greenhouse gas emissions in Europe, emissions, especially those originating from the road transport sector, need to be reduced. Plans are to achieve this goal by substituting fossil fuel vehicles with electric vehicles (EVs). This article first discusses conceptually the impact of an increasing share of EVs on the electricity grid and suitable locations for charging stations with examples from a Case Study in Lower Bavaria. Secondly, the impact of purchase subsidies on EV purchases in Germany, a high-income country characterized by an important automotive industry and an increasing share of private vehicles is examined. To achieve this, yearly information on EV purchases were analyzed by applying the Synthetic Control Method. Combining data from different sources including the European Alternative Fuels Observatory, Eurostat, and the European Automobile Manufacturers' Association, an overall picture was developed. Results indicate a difference between private, semi-public, and public charging infrastructures. Its spatial distribution does not correspond to a specific development strategy. Moreover, EV subsidies have a limited effect in Germany when controlling for market size. Limiting the discussion to a trade-off between subsidizing infrastructures or EV purchases obviates the multidimensionality of the problem as neither of them may be sufficient to accelerate the transition per se. Furthermore, if electricity provided for EVs comes mainly from fossil carriers, the changes in the road transport sector will not yield the expected emission reductions. The transition towards renewables is directly intertwined with the effects of EVs on emission reductions in the road transport sector.

This paper discusses the concept of crowdsourcing in combination with our new developed 3D viewer which is integrated in the technical infrastructure of PUBinPLAN, our digital participation platform. The voluntarily gathered information is collected on PUBinPLAN, where people can join and share their spatial knowledge on our 3D models of the city of Deggendorf and the Deggendorf Institute of Technology. Firstly, the technical details of the 3D viewer and the implementation into the PUBinPLAN website are explained and then, in a case study, the performance on different devices and in different browsers is analysed to ensure a smooth mapping experience for architectural approaches. This creates an added value to participatory regional and spatial planning processes.
