The Swiss Energy Strategy 2050 pursues an ambitious transition to a more renew- able and efficient energy future, combining CO2 and energy saving targets with a phase-out of nuclear electricity generation. This transition poses challenges not only for the ...
he energy sector is not only a major driving force of climate change, it is also vulnerable to future climate change. In this paper, we analyze the impacts of changes in future temperature on the heating and cooling services both in terms of global and reg ...
Energy geostructures represent a renewable and clean source of energy which can be used for heating and cooling of buildings and de-icing of infrastructures. This technology couples the structural role of geostructures with the energy supply, using the pri ...

In the past decades the portion of the population living in urban areas has continuously increased. Due to the high building density, the microclimate in urban areas changed significantly compared to rural areas. The temperatures measured in urban areas ar ...

The impact of future land use and land cover changes (LULCC) on regional and global climate is one of the most challenging aspects of understanding anthropogenic climate change. We study the impacts of LULCC on regional climate in the southeastern U.S. by ...
The continuous growth of energy needs and the fact that unpredictable energy demand is mostly served by unsustainable (i.e. fossil-fuel) power generators have given rise to the development of Demand Response (DR) mechanisms for flattening energy demand. Bu ...

We study the stability of a Markovian model of electricity production and consumption that incorporates production volatility due to renewables and uncertainty about actual demand versus planned production. We assume that the energy producer targets a fixe ...
Total energy consumption by com. and residential buildings in the US nears 40 Quads. Approx. 1/3 of that energy use is due to space heating and cooling. Recent anal. of materials that comprise the building envelope would benefit from smarter windows that m ...
