The mitigation of climate change is thought by many to be a significant environmental concern. In order to mitigate the bulk of carbon emissions from the electricity sector, large market penetration of renewable energy technologies is a key research issue. ...
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 ...
Heating and cooling of the buildings represent an important area of energy consumption in the developed countries. Furthermore, a large part of this demand is still satisfied with fossil resources such as oil or gas. Therefore, developing alternative and r ...
High atm. CO2 levels, resulting largely from combustion of fossil fuels, and its undesirable impact on global climate has sparked considerable interest in cleaner energy sources. While energy transitions are historically slow, technol. solns. for mitigatio ...
Four most important results: 1. Heating energy demand of Swiss households decreases by 0.5% for a 1% decrease in heating degree days. 2. The decrease in heating energy consumption is not offset by an increase in cooling energy consumption. 3. Despite consi ...

Within the challenge of sustainability, climate change mitigation and energy supply a promising way of more rational energy conversion is decentralized power generation and the co-production of power and heat. The combination of a solid oxide fuel cell (SO ...
Introduction to geothermal energy: what is geothermal energy, main applications (heat pumping, direct use, electricity production and cogeneration), geothermal resources, geothermal power plants. ...
The development of ground source heat pumps has facilitated the use of geothermal power at shallow depths. Initially, ground heat exchangers were buried in trenches or boreholes, but recent investigations and increasing congestion of landscapes have sugges ...
A thermo-economic and environomic analysis for the integration of district heating in several power plants using carbon capture and sequestration is done. Variable district heating temperatures have been studied by evaluating the energetic and economic per ...
