Title: "Low Carbon Scenarios for Romanian Electricity Sector"
Abstract: Due to its diversified and well-balanced mix of primary energy resources, Romania is the least import-dependent country in Southeastern Europe, but the fossil fuels still represent the main primary energy source. Romania has committed to achieve the clean energy and climate change mitigation goals included in the European Union's 2030 target and 2050 Roadmap. The electricity and heat sector is responsible for more than 40% of GHG emissions and it will be deeply affected by mitigation measures. The impact will be felt particularly on the coal production sector, which has proven to be indispensable for Romania during periods of high consumption. Anyway, the Romanian Government must take a crucial decision in 2017 to determine the future path for restructuring the electricity sector because a considerable share of the baseload power generation capacities are nearing their end of life and some are already economically inefficient or too polluting Of late years, the government has advanced in negotiations with Chinese investors for the development of two nuclear reactors and of a 600 MW coal-fired power plant using supercritical technology, but discussions is far from being finalized. A lower carbon path for Romania's electricity sector imposes significant costs and complex planning challenges on power generation. Achieving emissions reduction targets beyond the EU 2030 targets and possible EU 2050 targets will require Romania to abandon plans for new coal-based power generation capacity and life-extension of existing coal-fired power plants. It will also require significant additional renewable generation capacities. Six scenarios based on the Romania's energy and climate targets for 2030 and 2050 regarding carbon emissions, RES and energy efficiency were designed. The study presents the main assumptions and results for each scenario, focusing on electricity and heat demand, new capacities required, electricity generation, energy supply costs and investment, and CO2 emissions.

Title: "Studies Regarding the Use of Renewable Energy Sources to Produce Electricity"
Abstract: In the paper is shown o wind turbine with vertical axis helical rotor shape that has shown good energetic performances even at low wind speed. This type of turbine can be mounted on the roof of houses making them independent energetically throughout the entire year. Also, due to prolonged use of wind turbines they must be characterized by high reliability. This can be achieved through a rigorous design, appropriate simulation and testing and proper construction. In the paper is make some prediction and analysis of these systems that will lead to identify critical components, increase operating time, minimizing failure rate and minimizing maintenance costs.

Title: "Electricity Generation by Living Plant and Supply Through Nano Trees"
Abstract: The Plant Microbial Fuel Cell (PMFC) transforms solar radiation into green electricity through roots of a living plant in the anode of a microbial fuel cell. The photo synthesizing in the plant leaves is used to produce net fixed carbon which are transformed to the roots and releases various types of organic compounds like sugar, organic acids, polymeric carbohydrates, ethylene and carbon dioxide. This type of release is known as rhizodeposition and its products rhizodeposits which are renewable bio energy substrates. These substrates react with bacteria to generate electricity. The embedded electrodes number is increased to allow flow of ions and to harvest greater energy output. The plant metabolism for capturing carbon dioxide emission from power generating plant if the number of trees in the vicinity is increased then the air purity near the power station is enhanced and the living plant will do the dual job of harvesting energy and purifying the atmosphere. The photosynthesis by plants seems to be more limited by sunlight then capture of carbon dioxide to stabilize CO2 level in the atmosphere. Photosynthesis takes the carbon it needs from the air and it compensates for the emission of carbon dioxide at the power station site. In addition, the generated green electricity is distributed throughout the artificial trees through nano leaves and a supply is available as per demand.
