Sustainable energy technologies for energy saving and carbon emission reduction

Energy Policies for Carbon Dioxide Emission Reduction

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...

Emissive Carbon Coating for Energy-saving

It has been known that a high-emissivity furnace provides an energy-efficient alternative to a conventional furnace [1,2]. To improve the efficiency of a furnace, ceramic coatings with high emissivity are often applied to the interior of the furnace. The purpose of this paper is to show the amount of electrical energy-saving achieved by emissive carbon coating for a tubular vacuum-furnace. Alum...

Thermoelectricity for future sustainable energy technologies

— Thermoelectricity is a general term for a number of effects describing the direct interconversion of heat and electricity. Thermoelectric devices are therefore promising, environmental-friendly alternatives to conventional power generators or cooling units. Since the mid-90s, research on thermoelectric properties and their applications has steadily increased. In the course of years, the devel...

Novel energy saving technologies evaluation tool

The main objective of EMINENT project (Early Market Introduction of New ENergy Technologies) launched by EC DG TREN is to identify and accelerate introduction and implementation of leading edge European energy and environmental technology into the market place in Europe and worldwide. A software tool and an integrated database on new technologies and sectoral energy supplies and demands were de...
