For such, we model the national electricity system and estimate surplus generation. The model makes use of hourly distributions of electricity demand and power generation. Simulations for the year 2033 (last scenario year) suggest that 46–47% of the projected electricity consumption can be supplied by wind turbines and solar PV technology with a surplus of less than 5% of yearly consumption. A suitable capacity ratio of wind to solar PV and the management of electric vehicle charging may reduce surplus electricity. It is shown by our EnergyPLAN model that the solar PV capacity should be 1.1 times the wind power capacity which is a huge contrast to the current situation where solar PV is 13 times the wind power capacity in Hungary.}, year = {2023}, eissn = {1873-6785}, orcid-numbers = {Campos, José/0000-0001-5793-0776; Munkácsy, Béla/0000-0003-4207-1299} } @{MTMT:32590389, title = {Validation of household heat demand in rural settlements using software-based heat atlases}, url = {https://m2.mtmt.hu/api/publication/32590389}, author = {Csontos, Csaba and Campos, José and Soha, Tamás and Harmat, Ádám and Csüllög, Gábor and Munkácsy, Béla}, booktitle = {Smart Opportunities for Rural Communities in 2021–2027: Paper Proceedings}, unique-id = {32590389}, year = {2021}, pages = {38-47}, orcid-numbers = {Csüllög, Gábor/0000-0001-8436-7931; Munkácsy, Béla/0000-0003-4207-1299} } @{MTMT:32590360, title = {Individual heat pumps as an opportunity for smart and sustainable heating in rural communities}, url = {https://m2.mtmt.hu/api/publication/32590360}, author = {Campos, José and Csontos, Csaba and Harmat, Ádám and Csüllög, Gábor and Munkácsy, Béla}, booktitle = {Smart Opportunities for Rural Communities in 2021–2027: Paper Proceedings}, unique-id = {32590360}, year = {2021}, pages = {26-36}, orcid-numbers = {Csüllög, Gábor/0000-0001-8436-7931; Munkácsy, Béla/0000-0003-4207-1299} } @article{MTMT:31933105, title = {A megújuló energiára alapozott falusi léptékű távfűtési lehetőségek térbeli elemzése}, url = {https://m2.mtmt.hu/api/publication/31933105}, author = {Csontos, Csaba and Soha, Tamás and Harmat, Ádám and Campos, José and Csüllög, Gábor and Munkácsy, Béla}, journal-iso = {MAGYAR ENERGETIKA}, journal = {MAGYAR ENERGETIKA}, volume = {28}, unique-id = {31933105}, issn = {1216-8599}, year = {2021}, pages = {41-49}, orcid-numbers = {Csüllög, Gábor/0000-0001-8436-7931; Munkácsy, Béla/0000-0003-4207-1299} } @article{MTMT:31887720, title = {The importance of high crop residue demand on biogas plant site selection, scaling and feedstock allocation – A regional scale concept in a Hungarian study area}, url = {https://m2.mtmt.hu/api/publication/31887720}, author = {Soha, Tamás and Papp, Luca and Csontos, Csaba and Munkácsy, Béla}, doi = {10.1016/j.rser.2021.110822}, journal-iso = {RENEW SUST ENERG REV}, journal = {RENEWABLE & SUSTAINABLE ENERGY REVIEWS}, volume = {141}, unique-id = {31887720}, issn = {1364-0321}, abstract = {In regions characterised by intensive agriculture, livestock manure is a commonly used feedstock for biogas production. Due to its expensive transportation, manure sources are often the sole criteria during biogas plant site selection, regarding feedstock supply. Encouraging biogas plant operators to use larger amounts of crop residues in the feedstock is favourable from an energy management viewpoint, but its spatial projection on resource logistics and its significance on biogas plant selection is less investigated. In this study, scenarios were created with different feedstock compositions considering constant manure and varying crop residue ratios. Based on their potential biogas yields and the location of livestock farms, a manure source-oriented site selection and facility scaling was made in a Hungarian study area. The applied GIS-based feedstock allocation and logistic analysis defined the crop acquisition possibilities and optimal transportation routes, assuming multiple resource-competitive biogas plants. The results indicate that feedstock composition can indirectly impact the site selection procedure and supply security if high crop residue demand is considered. Resource acquisition possibilities and economic feasibility are significantly affected by the location and density of the proposed biogas plants and their relative position to the crop supply areas. Due to the geographical heterogeneity of the supply side and the demand points, the transportation costs of crop residues and the digestate exceed those of the manure in all scenarios, which draws attention to the importance of spatial availability of crop residues during biogas plant site selection and scaling.}, year = {2021}, eissn = {1879-0690}, orcid-numbers = {Munkácsy, Béla/0000-0003-4207-1299} } @article{MTMT:31678844, title = {Heat consumption scenarios in the rural residential sector: the potential of heat pump-based demand-side management for sustainable heating}, url = {https://m2.mtmt.hu/api/publication/31678844}, author = {Campos, José and Csontos, Csaba and Harmat, Ádám and Csüllög, Gábor and Munkácsy, Béla and Campos, José}, doi = {10.1186/s13705-020-00271-4}, journal-iso = {ENERGY SUSTAIN SOC}, journal = {ENERGY SUSTAINABILITY AND SOCIETY}, volume = {10}, unique-id = {31678844}, issn = {2192-0567}, abstract = {Poor air quality and inadequate domestic heating sources are tightly connected problems in the Eastern-European countryside.

HDH, or multi-source systems, use a reasoned combination of energy sources, which is still unusual practice in Eastern Europe. This particular Bükkalja region struggles with import dependency, energy poverty, and serious air pollution. Considering natural and social capabilities, potential sites for rural district heating developments were examined. Door-to-door field surveys, residential heat demand, GIS-based renewable energy potential calculations, detailed supply-demand and statistical analysis were applied to reveal DH development possibilities. Most of the results have a tight correlation with the relevant values of Pan-European Thermal Atlas (PETA 4.3), however, in case of suggestions, there are considerable differences. The outcomes also highlight that current biomass utilization far exceeds the sustainability limits within the area. The screening proves that the capabilities of seven rural settlements are suitable for DH developments. This investigation supports the decision-making process and its proposed projects could play a significant role in the local energy transition. This study underlines that rural DH developments could have the same relevance as similar projects in urban circumstances.}, keywords = {GIS; Renewable energy; District heating; Rural energy transition; heat demand estimation}, year = {2020}, pages = {17-36}, orcid-numbers = {Campos, José/0000-0001-5793-0776; Csüllög, Gábor/0000-0001-8436-7931; Munkácsy, Béla/0000-0003-4207-1299} } @article{MTMT:30876209, title = {Fűtési szezonban - Harcban az energiaszegénységgel}, url = {https://m2.mtmt.hu/api/publication/30876209}, author = {Munkácsy, Béla and Csontos, Csaba and Soha, Tamás}, journal-iso = {A FÖLDGÖMB}, journal = {A FÖLDGÖMB}, volume = {37}, unique-id = {30876209}, issn = {1215-8690}, year = {2019}, pages = {60-70}, orcid-numbers = {Munkácsy, Béla/0000-0003-4207-1299} }
