The Concept & Characteristics of Ideal Energy System and its Realization Constraints

Abstract

An energy system is a system which produces or converts and delivers energy for useful work. An energy system is primarily designed to supply energy to various processes in the dynamic world and to provide both basic needs and luxurious services to end-users. There  are many energy sources of different types used in practice. The sustainability model of the universe suggests the use of renewable energy sources for harvesting energy for practical use. Renewable energy research is finding importance due to its priority of maintaining environmental sustainability. The objective and direction of renewable energy research can be properly guided by considering the properties of Ideal energy source. In this paper, we made an attempt to analyse the importance and objective of energy research and how it can be improved and speed up by showcasing an anticipated hypothetical energy system called the ideal energy system. The system model of the ideal energy system is proposed and its predicted characteristics are proposed and discussed in detail. The possibility of realization of such a system in practice is also discussed by comparing the ideal energy systemcharacteristics with practically possible energy system using renewable energy sources and suitable technology.
