Where is the money ? A decomposition of monetary flows behind fossil fuels

François Maréchal, Jonas Schnidrig, Xiang Li, Raphaël Briguet

Transition from fossils to renewables is leading to radical societal changes. Shifting the capital from fossils to renewables is commonly accompanied with political concerns, such as energy autonomy, domestic employment etc. Despite a decreasing trend in r ...

Impact of Escherichia colifrom stormwater drainage on recreational water quality: an integrated monitoring and modelling of urban catchment, pipes and lake

Frédéric Charles Soulignac

In recent years, recreational waterbodies are increasingly favoured in urban areas. In spite of the growing concerns for maintaining the required bathing water quality, the impacts of stormwater drainage are still poorly controlled. In this context, this s ...

Assessing visibility in multi-scale urban planning: A contribution to a method enhancing social acceptability of solar energy in cities

Jean-Louis Scartezzini, Christian Roecker, Maria Cristina Munari Probst, Josef Andreas Schuler, Pietro Florio

Urban areas are facing a growing deployment of solar photovoltaic and thermal technologies on building envelopes, both on roofs and on façades. An effective solar energy planning process considers social acceptance, in relation to the landscape alteration ...

Does roof shape matter? Solar photovoltaic (PV) integration on building roofs

Jean-Louis Scartezzini, Dan Assouline, Nahid Mohajeri Pour Rayeni, Bérénice Guiboud

This paper focuses on roof-shape classification and solar potential for integrating photovoltaics (PV) on roofs. A machine-learning approach, Support Vector Machine (SVM), is used to classify the roof shapes in the city of Geneva. The impact of various roo ...

Reduction of Hydropeaking in Rivers by Bank Macro Rroughness

Anton Schleiss, Tobias Meile

High-head storage hydropower plants operate their turbines during periods of high energy demand. The starting and stopping of turbines results in rapid fluctuations of discharge and water levels in rivers called hydropeaking, which are unfavourable from an ...
