Worldwide Development of Wind Energy and CO2 Emission Reduction
One of the most considerable issues in the global society is reducing CO2 emissions of industrial activities and its consequences. Therefore, exploitation of clean energy sources is one of the requirements of the international community. In this regard, the researchers investigated the impact of renewable energy utilization to achieve the low carbon economy and concluded that it can significant...
متن کاملInvestigating Co2 Emission Reductions in Existing Urban Housing Using a Community Domestic Energy Model
This paper presents the development of an energy and carbon model of existing dwellings and its application to urban housing. The model is used to predict the energy use and CO2 emissions of the housing stock of the city of Leicester, UK, and to estimate the effect of energy efficiency interventions. It is shown that a high level of energy efficiency interventions has the potential to reduce ov...
متن کاملSharing global CO2 emission reductions among one billion high emitters.
We present a framework for allocating a global carbon reduction target among nations, in which the concept of "common but differentiated responsibilities" refers to the emissions of individuals instead of nations. We use the income distribution of a country to estimate how its fossil fuel CO(2) emissions are distributed among its citizens, from which we build up a global CO(2) distribution. We ...
متن کاملDistributed Energy Storage Using Residential Hot Water Heaters
This paper proposes and analyses a new demand response technique for renewable energy regulation using smart hot water heaters that forecast water consumption at an individual dwelling level. Distributed thermal energy storage has many advantages, including high overall efficiency, use of existing infrastructure and a distributed nature. In addition, the use of a smart thermostatic controller e...
متن کاملPotential Energy, Cost, and CO2 Savings from Energy-Efficient Government Purchasing
The public sector — including federal, state, and local agencies — purchases at least 10% of all energy-using products in the US. The federal government alone is the largest buyer in the world for many products. Channeling this enormous buying power toward energy-efficient products can stimulate market transformation throughout the economy. Government initiatives in the U.S. also offer a promis...
