Charts of electricity supply per capita show an unusual trend when wind and solar are added. Figure 1 shows that, in the US, once wind and solar are added, total electricity generation per capita falls, rather than rises! Figure 1. US per capita electricity generation based on data of the...
For historical data, these include the international conflicts of 1914–1945 (WW1&2) and the great depression of 1929. There are therefore many opportunities for long-term trends to reinforce each other and thus to facilitate unintuitive outcomes, such as prolonged recessions that reduce inequality...
No country is self-sufficient in everything. All measures have costs and distributive effects. Endless debate between “globaphiles” and “globaphobes”. National policies have international impacts. Is a common regulation needed? Regional or multilateral strategies? Main questions •How measuring ...
ii. PEM-Methanol-DME Production: PEM produced H2, after CO2 hydrogenation produces methanol and sent to DME production at T = 40 ◦C and P = 1 bar. iii. SOE-Methanol-DME Production: SOE produced H2, after CO2 hydrogenation produces methanol and sent to DME production at T = 40 ◦C...
The implemented model was aimed at exploring the trade-offs between economic and environmental objectives in each scenario s; in addition, the effects of a possible introduction of cultivars selected for dry-cultivation have been estimated. More in detail, the first objective function maximizes total...
