The Ontario Power Generation (OPG) Pickering B Facility consists of four 540 MW nuclear generating units. Each unit is furnished with a once-through Condenser Cooling Water (CCW) System that uses Lake Ontario water. Zebra mussels (Dreissena polymorpha) are infesting the condenser cooling water intakes at Pickering. The mature mussels and their shells become entrained in the CCW, are deposited in the condenser inlet water boxes, and become lodged in the condenser tube sheets and within the tubes. As a result, the flow through the condenser is reduced, and the existing Condenser Tube Cleaning System (CTCS) performance is degraded. This reduces the Turbine-Generator generating capability that results in a loss of electric generation revenues for OPG, and increased maintenance costs to manually remove the zebra mussels from the condenser. OPG decided to install Debris Filters in the six 72-inch diameter inlets of each of the four Pickering B units to automatically remove the zebra mussels before they enter the condensers and discharge them back into the lake. The Debris Filters for Unit 8 were installed during a scheduled outage in the winter of 2001/2002. The Unit 5 installation was completed at the end of 2002 and the Unit 6 & 7 installations are scheduled for 2003. The installed equipment is performing as expected. The zebra mussels are intercepted by the Debris Filter, and are automatically discharged into the condenser bypass and returned to the lake. The CTCS system can again perform its intended function to prevent bio-fouling buildup inside the condenser tubes. As a result, generation capacity increased and maintenance expenditures decreased with a net result of increased revenues for OPG.

There are increasing concerns in México regarding CO2 emissions, due to the use of fossil fuel based electric generation. Recently, several laws have been passed with the objective of increase the non-fossil participation in the energy portfolio mix. Although several objectives have been established, these would be hard to achieve if investments should continue to be directed mainly to fossil fuel technologies. This article presents a system dynamics decision support model, as an alternative method to the traditional modelling approaches. The model is used to assess the generation capacity requirements and to evaluate them in several simulated scenarios.

To promote sustainable timber and forest biomass utilization, this study estimated technically feasible and economically viable availability considering forest regenerations. This study focuses on five prefectures, namely, Aomori, Iwate, Miyagi, Akita, and Yamagata, and considers the trade between these prefectures. The data used in this study include forest registration (tree species and site index) and GIS data (information on roads and subcompartment layers) from the prefectures for private and communal forests. Additionally, this study includes GIS data (subcompartment layers, including tree species) from the Forestry Agency of Japan for national forests as well as 10-m-grid digital elevation models (DEMs) from the Geographical Survey Institute. As a result, supply potentials of timber and forest biomass resources were estimated at 11,388,960 m3/year and 2,277,792 m3/year, respectively. Then, those availabilities were estimated at 1,631,624 m3/year and 326,325 m3/year. Therefore, the rate of availabilities to supply potentials was 14.3%. Since timber production, and wood chip usage from thinned woods and logging residues in 2018 were 4,667,000 m3/year and 889,600 m3/year, respectively, the rates of timber and forest biomass resource availabilities to those values were 35.0% and 36.7%, respectively. Furthermore, the demand was estimated at 951,740 m3/year from 100,000 m3/year with the generation capacity of 5 MW. The rate of forest biomass resource availability versus the demand was 34.2%. The rates were increased to 64.1% with an additional regeneration subsidy, 173.3% with the thinning subsidy, and 181.5% with both subsidies. Thus, the estimated availability with both subsidies met the demand sufficiently in this region.
