GIS-Based Small-Scale Hydropower Resources Assessment in Kurdistan - Iran
The industry development and the life standards increment have caused the human feels more easement, but it also has caused an increase of energy consumption, environmental pollution and the large volume of greenhouse gases emission. Those changes make the researchers to find out the alternative energy sources such as renewable energies. The most prominent and the oldest source of clean and re...

متن کاملOn market-mediated emissions and regulations on life cycle emissions
We analyze the use of life cycle assessment (LCA) as a regulatory tool using biofuel regulations as an illustrative example. A regulatory context calls for a consequential LCA (CLCA) of a policy as opposed to an attributional LCA (ALCA) of a product. In performing CLCA, issues of scale, price effects, technology and policy in the counterfactual state of the world, strategic behavior, policy hor...
متن کاملThe potential for small scale hydropower development in the US
In an earlier paper (Kosnik, 2008), the potential for small scale hydropower to contribute to US renewable energy supplies, as well as reduce current carbon emissions, was investigated. It was discovered that thousands of viable sites capable of producing significant amounts of hydroelectric power were available throughout the United States. The primary objective of this paper is to determine t...
متن کاملComparative life-cycle air emissions of coal, domestic natural gas, LNG, and SNG for electricity generation.
The U.S. Department of Energy (DOE) estimates that in the coming decades the United States' natural gas (NG) demand for electricity generation will increase. Estimates also suggest that NG supply will increasingly come from imported liquefied natural gas (LNG). Additional supplies of NG could come domestically from the production of synthetic natural gas (SNG) via coal gasification-methanation....
