the increase in “food insecurity” among the elderly households during periods associated with high heating and cooling demand when they spend a significant proportion of their income on energy (see the discussions in[47]). Another example is in Queensland, Australia, where the number of ...
There is much agitation in the climatosphere about the amount of “coking coal” used in making steel. A number of allegedly smart folks are working on ways to replace that coal with hydrogen to reduce the amount of eeevil CO2produced in steelmaking. There’s a very recent post on the s...
leads the way. Almost all coal and nuclear power plants have been closed in favor of a massive building plan for wind and solar facilities. After a decade of that, for the past couple of years, Germans have suffered consumer retail electricity prices of over 30 euro cents per kWh — close...
Second, although the final cost per kWh of energy is not given, we can see that whereas in the GIV storage case we build 16GW solar, 90GW offshore wind, 124GW inland wind = 230GW peak, with centralized storage we build 50, 129, 61 = 240GW peak and probably need the expensive off...
Australia, Norway, or the Middle East7. Japan currently relies heavily on imports of fossil fuels from the Middle East and Australia. The transition to a low-carbon hydrogen emphasis energy future recognizing the diversity of potential sources including though not necessarily confined to the source ...
This will be a ten-year agreement resulting in an offset in CO2e emissions of 20 million metric tons per year. A similar CCfD scheme has been implemented in the United Kingdom to accelerate the renewable-energy transit...
Without sufficient measures to improve energy sustainability, electricity demand in Bolivia post 2030 may continue to increase and reach the level of Chile (around 4 MWh per capita) or even that of OECD countries (e.g., 10 MWh per capita in Australia). Although a range of measures, including...
To this end, many countries are targeting the deployment of renewable energy (RE) technologies, some of which have grown rapidly since the turn of the century. To achieve the goals of the Paris Agreement, however, the deployment of RE must be even further accelerated, as illustrated by the ...
The RSPV potential per land area ranges from 0 kWh/m2 to 35.6 kWh/m2, with an average value of 7.2 kWh/m2 (Figure 3A). High values for electricity potential per land-use area are concentrated inside RD4 owing to the high density of buildings. Some hotspots for RSPV potential per land-...
