Techno-economic analysis of solid oxide fuel cell-based energy systems for decarbonising residential power and heat in the United Kingdom (2024)
Journal Article
Roy, D., Samanta, S., Roy, S., Smallbone, A., & Roskilly, A. P. (2024). Techno-economic analysis of solid oxide fuel cell-based energy systems for decarbonising residential power and heat in the United Kingdom. Green Chemistry, https://doi.org/10.1039/d3gc02645k

This study examines the feasibility of using hydrogen as a clean energy source for residential consumers in the UK through a low-carbon energy hub. Two cases were compared: a solid oxide fuel cell (SOFC) integrated combined heat and power (CHP) syste...

Modelling of hydrogen blending into the UK natural gas network driven by a solid oxide fuel cell for electricity and district heating system (2023)
Journal Article
Samanta, S., Roy, D., Roy, S., Smallbone, A., & Roskilly, A. P. (2024). Modelling of hydrogen blending into the UK natural gas network driven by a solid oxide fuel cell for electricity and district heating system. Fuel, 355, Article 129411. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.fuel.2023.129411

A thorough investigation of the thermodynamics and economic performance of a cogeneration system based on solid oxide fuel cells that provides heat and power to homes has been carried out in this study. Additionally, different percentages of green hy...

Fuel cell integrated carbon negative power generation from biomass (2022)
Journal Article
Roy, D., Samanta, S., Roy, S., Smallbone, A., & Roskilly, A. P. (2023). Fuel cell integrated carbon negative power generation from biomass. Applied Energy, 331, Article 120449. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.apenergy.2022.120449

Combining biomass-fuelled power plant with carbon capture and storage allows CO2 to be removed from the atmosphere, considering biomass a carbon–neutral fuel. In the present study, a biomass-based CO2 negative system has been proposed, which combines... Read More about Fuel cell integrated carbon negative power generation from biomass.

Addressing Energy Poverty in the Energy Community: Assessment of Energy, Environmental, Economic, and Social Benefits for an Italian Residential Case Study (2022)
Journal Article
Ceglia, F., Marrasso, E., Samanta, S., & Sasso, M. (2022). Addressing Energy Poverty in the Energy Community: Assessment of Energy, Environmental, Economic, and Social Benefits for an Italian Residential Case Study. Sustainability, 14(22), Article 15077. https://doi.org/10.3390/su142215077

Although a clear definition of energy poverty has not been reported in the scientific literature or in general energy directives, this condition affects about 10% of European people. During the last three years, the COVID-19 pandemic combined with th...
