Renewables and Efficiency

ICF has been updating the Department of Energy’s CHP Installation Database for over a decade.

The characterized wind electricity generation systems were statistically evaluated to assess the reduction in life cycle GHG emissions. A total of five unique categorization codes (HAWT-ON-S. HAWT-ON-I. HAWT-ON-L. HAWT- OFF-L. VAWT-ON-S) were designated to the 29 wind electricity generation LCA studies (representing 74 wind system cases) using the proposed categorization …

The book systematically introduces smart power system design and its infrastructure. platform and operating standards. It focuses on multi-objective optimization and illustrates where the intelligence of the system lies. With abundant project data. this book is a practical guideline for engineers and researchers in electrical engineering. as well as power …

The main objective of this study was to analyze the impact of energy consumption (divided into renewable and non-renewable sources) and income on CO2 emissions within the environmental Kuznets curve (EKC) model for the Southern Common Market (MERCOSUR). To do so. the annual panel data collected during the 1990–2014 periods …

Off the coast of Massachusetts. on the history-filled island of Martha’s Vineyard. tourists may soon find themselves journeying into the future on a bus that is wirelessly charged by microgrids.

As a result of great increases in CO2 emissions in the last few decades. many papers have examined the relation- ship between renewable energy and CO2 emissions in the energy economics literature. because as a clean energy source. renewable energy can reduce CO2 emissions and solve environmental problems stemming from …

The aim of this document is to investigate the dynamic relationship between economic growth. renewable energy consumption. energy consumption and CO2 emissions in Tunisia over the period 1990–2015. Unit root tests and co-integration test was used in order to detect the order of stationary and to test the existence long …

Methods and perspectives to model and measure productivity and efficiency have made a number of important advances in the last decade. Using the standard and innovative formulations of the theory and practice of efficiency and productivity measurement. Robin C. Sickles and Valentin Zelenyuk provide a comprehensive approach to productivity and …

Over the last few years. Chile has experienced a remarkable energy transformation. The investors’ interest in renewable energies has been increasing rapidly. Despite a relatively small energy market. Chile became the second largest market. after Brazil. for renewable energy investment in South America. Investment—excluding large hydro—reached a record level of …

China became the largest car producer a decade ago. set to overtake the USA as the world’s biggest oil importer in 2017. New passenger vehicle sales in China will exceed 25 million per annum in 2017. in September 2017 alone. sales of vehicles in China reached 2.709.000 units. up 5.7% …
