Renewable Energy Integration with Building Energy Systems A Modelling Approach

Construction as an industry sector is responsible for around one-third of the total worldwide energy usage and about 20% of greenhouse gas emissions. The rise in the number of buildings and floor space area for residential and commercial purposes has imposed enormous pressure on existing energy sources. Implementations such as efficient usage of building energy systems design measures utilization of local energy resources energy storage and the use of renewable energy sources to meet electricity demands are currently under development and deployment for improving the energy performance index. However integrating all such measures and the development of nearly zero-energy and zero-emission buildings is yet to be explored. In this book the different control techniques and intelligent technologies used to improve the energy performance of buildings are illustrated. Every building energy control system has a two-fold objective for energy and comfort requirements to achieve a high comfort index (for thermal visual air quality humidity and various plug loads) and increase the energy performance index. The most significant aspect in the design of a building’s energy control system is modelling. All the components methodologies and processes involved in developing a renewable energy-driven building are covered in detail. This book is intended for graduates and professionals working towards the development of a sustainable built environment using renewable energy sources. | Renewable Energy Integration with Building Energy Systems A Modelling Approach

China’s Climate-Energy Policy Domestic and International Impacts

China’s recent climate-energy policy an outcome of contemporary challenges has generated conflict of interest amongst major stakeholders. Coupled with a boost in demand for oil gas and coal as well as a rapid growth in wind and solar power it has not only affected domestic fossil fuel and renewable energy providers but has also provoked a resource boom affecting development pathways internationally. This book therefore seeks to examine the economic social and ecological effects associated with China’s climate-energy policy. Assessing how the policy has been and will be formulated and implemented it analyses the changing use of energy CO2 emissions and GDP as well as social and environmental impacts both domestically and internationally. It presents in-depth case studies on specific policies in China and on its resource exporting countries such as Indonesia Australia Myanmar and Mongolia. At the same time using quantitative data it provides detailed input-output and applied computable general equilibrium analyses. Arguing that China has actively advanced its climate-energy policy to become a leader of global climate governance it demonstrates that China ultimately relocates the cost of its climate-energy policy to resource exporting countries. This book will be of great interest to students and scholars of energy the environment and sustainability as well as Chinese Studies and economics. | China’s Climate-Energy Policy Domestic and International Impacts

Commonsense in Nuclear Energy

Originally published in 1979 written at a time when the world stood on the brink of (another) energy crisis this book argued that an alternative primary fuel had to be found and that the answer lay in the exploitation of nuclear fission. The book sought to dispel the anxieties of environmentalists by correcting what the authors felt were basic misconceptions about nuclear energy. The book distinguishes carefully between nuclear energy and nuclear explosions as the authors believed that it was the confusion between these two very different things which lies at the root of most opposition to nuclear energy. The Relevant facts concerning nuclear energy are presented in a straightforward way and the case made that nuclear energy can be clean and safe. The book includes a discussion of the storage of nuclear waste and the safety record of the nuclear industry. | Commonsense in Nuclear Energy

Large Energy Storage Systems Handbook

In the current push to convert to renewable sources of energy many issues raised years ago on the economics and the difficulties of siting energy storage are once again being raised today. When large amounts of wind solar and other renewable energy sources are added to existing electrical grids efficient and manageable energy storage becomes a crucial component to allowing a range of eco-friendly resources to play a significant role in our energy system. In order to fulfill our intended goal of diminishing dependence on non-renewable sources of energy and reducing our carbon footprint we must find a way to store and convert these novel resources into practical solutions. Based on the efforts of a University of Colorado team devoted to increasing the use of renewable energy production within the current electrical power grid Large Energy Storage Systems Handbook examines a number of ways that energy can be stored and converted back to electricity. Examining how to enhance renewable generation energy storage relative to economic and carbon impact this book discusses issues of reliability siting economics and efficiency. Chapters include the practicalities of energy storage generation and absorption of electrical power; the difficulties of intermittent generation; and the use of pumped and underground pumped hydroelectric energy storage. The book highlights the storage of compressed air battery energy solar thermal and natural gas sources of energy. Heavily referenced and easily accessible to policy makers developers and students alike this book provides contributions from those active in the field for coverage of many important topics. With this book as a foundation these pioneers can develop the capacity of power grids to handle high renewable energy generation penetration and provide a brighter future for generations to come.

Energy or Extinction? The Case for Nuclear Energy

Originally published in 1977 and as second edition in 1979 this book argues that without energy sources on a vast scale our present society cannot survive. According to the author Fred Hoyle the technology to tap solar wind or wave power on a large enough scale just does not exist. He considers nuclear fission to be the only source currently capable of supplying our needs. The author fills in the scientific background necessary to appreciate his arguments in his lucid direct style so that the book can act as an ideal introduction for those unfamiliar with the energy debate. This short book is unashamedly provocative and many of the central tenets of it remain as relevant today as when it was first published. | Energy or Extinction? The Case for Nuclear Energy
