DECO2—An Open-Source Energy System Decarbonisation Planning Software including Negative Emissions Technologies (2023)
Journal Article
Nair, P. N. S., Tan, R. R., Foo, D. C., Gamaralalage, D., & Short, M. (2023). DECO2—An Open-Source Energy System Decarbonisation Planning Software including Negative Emissions Technologies. Energies, 16(4), Article 1708. https://doi.org/10.3390/en16041708

The deployment of CO2 capture and storage (CCS) and negative emissions technologies (NETs) are crucial to meeting the net-zero emissions target by the year 2050, as emphasised by the Glasgow Climate Pact. Over the years, several energy planning model... Read More about DECO2—An Open-Source Energy System Decarbonisation Planning Software including Negative Emissions Technologies.

Journal Article
Gamaralalage, D., Kanematsu, Y., Ng, D. K. S., Foong, S. Z. Y., Andiappan, V., Foo, D. C. Y., & Kikuchi, Y. (2022). Life Cycle Assessment of International Biomass Utilization: A Case Study of Malaysian Palm Kernel Shells for Biomass Power Generation in Japan. Waste and Biomass Valorization, 13(5), 2717-2733. https://doi.org/10.1007/s12649-021-01643-3

Palm kernel shell (PKS) is a by-product in palm oil milling during the extraction of crude palm oil from fresh fruit bunches. PKS is a promising solid fuel to replace coal with its high calorific value. As Japan is moving towards renewable power to r...
