اللهم لك الحمد والشكر ما تم امر او تيسر الا بإذنه I am very happy to share the publication of the fourth paper from my master’s thesis in “Journal of Cleaner Production “(11.1 Impact Factor, Q1) which entitled "Solid desiccant air conditioning system using desiccant dehumidifiers with cooling technique and thermal recovery unit: Experimental investigation and performance analysis". After what we presented in the previous papers (the new desiccant dehumidifier that overcome the heat generated by the adsorption effect which represents the most important problem facing the rotary desiccant wheel in different applications), in this paper we studied the effect of merging this smart innovative desiccant dehumidifier on the performance of the desiccant air conditioning system. This paper mainly focused on the effect of changing the regeneration and process air flux on the high- efficient desiccant air conditioner that achieves the sustainable development by protecting the environment from harmful emissions, achieving thermal comfort conditions, and rationalizing energy consumption. To achieve this, smart innovative desiccant dehumidifiers and energy recovery unit were incorporated with the suggested air conditioner. The smart innovative desiccant dehumidifiers aimed to improve the air dehumidification capacity and avoid the effect of the adsorption heat by using larger cooling rates to cool the process air. To minimize power consumption, regeneration air was pre-heated using an energy recovery unit. The results showed that the ultra-efficient desiccant air conditioner suggested in the present study represents an effective design because it could achieve thermal comfort conditions and rationalize energy consumption. The ultra-efficient desiccant air conditioner could supply the cooling air with average temperature and humidity ratio varying between 11.9-14.6 oC and 6.89-8.9 gw/kgda, respectively. Also, the energy analysis presented that the proposed desiccant air conditioner is high-efficient where the average values of thermal coefficient of performance and electrical coefficient of performance reached 3.68 and 3.79, respectively. Moreover, the average saving in thermal energy was varying between 21.9-28%. https://lnkd.in/dGebuXah

Cyber Security Solutions Architect - All views & opinions are my own and in no way reflect those of my employer.
We know exactly what will happen. You cannot substantially increase the load on the grid without proportionally increasing its output and carrying capacity and just hope on speculative narrative fuelled science, that it will work. Science, and electrical engineering is a science, doesn't work like that. "National Grid ESO (NESO), which balances Britain’s electricity supply and demand, would reject the suggestion that there is no “satisfactory explanation” for how it will keep the lights on in Britain’s green electricity future." https://lnkd.in/eP_uqCY6

https://lnkd.in/etqheVQG Am quoted in this Economist piece on the challenge facing the UK in upgrading its electrical grid. Increasing the rate at which we build new pylons and wires by 700% over the next decade is an almost wartime level of ambition. To make it work, we need rapid strategic planning from the System Operator, a streamlined financial framework from Ofgem, a massive expansion of the engineering workforce - and to make it affordable we need to start competing some of these major projects. This is daunting by itself, but this moonshot also involves building new infrastructure in new places and persuading the people that live there to love pylons. By the end of this decade we need to have delivered the kind of institutional and political alignment that the UK has not seen this century.

Wow! An incredible Wired Octopus Energy Tech Event today! I wasn’t expecting it but a massive honour that Greg J asked me start the day demonstrating the story of smart energy tech in our Net Zero Home experience to Lord Callanan ahead of the Lord’s opening speech during which he launched the new £1Bn Great British Insulation Scheme. https://lnkd.in/g34t5mwN Whatever heating system you have, getting your home insulated has to be a first step as per the Telegraph series articles I’ve been in over the summer. https://lnkd.in/gxrnJBzk Tim Peake’s talk was full of insights having seen the world from afar. Tim gave us a great analogy of the safety of the space station ‘tin can’ versus the safety of our thin atmospheric layer wrapped around our earth. That astronaut perspective emphasised the fragility of our earth and therefore his passion for action. Of course we had a launch to announce. Greg J revealed the brand new Cosy6 Air Source Heat Pump from Jason C and team - been under wraps (literally for those who wondered what was hiding centre stage all morning). This is a game-changing heat pump: high temp, smaller unit, great design (although dividing opinions and requests for colours on Twitter) and much lower cost - even free under the Boiler Upgrade Scheme for some homes - more details on Twitter: https://lnkd.in/gJ8Dyvq6 Through the afternoon we heard of other interesting technologies. I’m not convinced by Nuclear Fission or Space Solar solutions but I’m keeping an open mind as these technologies keep progressing through R&D. For me the presenters perhaps spent too long knocking rooftop solar and wind turbines than covering the timelines and costs and overcoming the engineering challenges of their tech. Probably the most memorable and entertaining was Sir Tim Berners-Lee’s chat with Greg drawing parallels between the internet and the grid - hopefully the recording will be published. He designed the World Wide Web from the start as permission-less and decentralised which is why it’s coped with exponential growth and easily reroutes round outages. Compare that to how our electricity grid works - more like a perpendicular than a parallel analogy!

Great to see Regen shine a light on constraints in distribution networks. One particular quote stood out "Analysis found that voltage constraints will drive around half of low-voltage network upgrades". In our work we have seen that distribution networks often have quite poor visibility into voltage stability (system strength) making it hard to tell if they are actually approaching this constraint in the first place.
What will it take to get the electricity distribution network ready for net zero? The report Regen is launching today in partnership with The MCS Foundation aims to answer that question. Key findings: • There is significant spare capacity on local networks today. • With electrification of heat and transport at the rate needed to meet the UK's legally binding carbon budgets, network operators' data shows that 45% of primary substations will require investments by 2035. The map shows how this plays out regionally. • Most DNOs are not publishing projections of constraints for their secondary substations and low-voltage networks. Without this information it is difficult to predict the volume or rate of LV network upgrades required. • Economic network design relies on demand diversity (we don't all switch on our kettles at once). Maintaining load diversity in a future with lots of highly flexible demand will be critical to minimising the need for network upgrades. Read the report here: https://lnkd.in/dcWAA66h

The Local Grid Challenge..... A new report from my colleague Frank Hodgson, takes a close look at the challenges faced on the distribution and low voltage networks. https://lnkd.in/ejdG9vxE This follows previous Regen reports that have looked at the overall grid challenge and the future role of networks. It's quite a complex and nuanced picture. Although today most parts of the distribution network have capacity to accommodate low carbon demand technologies like EV charging and heat pumps, there are a number of uncertainties:- 🔹 area by area variation in both network capacity and LCT uptake 🔹 how much flexibility will assist to help reduce and shift demand on the lower voltages 🔹 the potential loss of diversity and other changes in demand profiles 🔹 how quickly networks can ramp up network reinforcement when it is needed 🔹 an underlying challenge to monitor operational data for the hundreds of thousands of low voltage assets Faced with uncertainty one option would be to wait-and-see, to avoid regret costs. The LV network is a different challenge to that of Transmission - with hundreds of thousands of assets to be maintained and upgraded rather than a few big projects, so "wait-and-see" may not be the best option over the long term. Networks are clearly on to this issue and are running a number of initiatives to improve their LV network monitoring, data sharing, use of flex and LV planning. The stakes are high however, and given the importance of the low voltage network for a fair net zero transition (and economic growth) plus the clear supply chain and resource optimisation advantage of smoothing network reinforcement over time, it makes more sense to start early and front load investment where this is possible and can be justified. Or at least to adopt a one-touch, fit-for-the-future, investment strategy. Hopefully this report is a good scene-setter for the forthcoming National Infrastructure Commission study on the same subject.
