Wind turbines in Greece set a national record on September 6, accounting for 81 percent of the country's electricity output. High temperatures, wildfires and flooding pretty much sum up the weather patterns in Greece since the summer. From an unprecedented amount of rain in...
Saudi Arabia also operates 13 solar photovoltaic projects. The Al-Henakiyah project is under development and will generate a capacity of 1,500 MW, ranking it among the world’s five largest solar farms. FASTFACT • International Mother Earth Day, celebrated every year on April 22, was recogn...
Fortunately, because much of the power we use comes from electricity, we have alternatives. We can make electricity fromwind power, for example, orsolar panels. We can incinerate trash to generate heat that will drive a power station (though at the risk of producingair pollution). We can gr...
In the Middle East, some of the more sought after certifications include the globally recognised LEED, as well as the UAE established Estidama, and Mostadam, which originated in Saudi Arabia. 2. Low Energy Use Intensity (EUI) Sustainable companies need energy efficient buildings – and...
After the train departed, we had some periods where the electricity was working (impressive!) but needed our headlamps/torches for most of the ride. We brought our own sheets for the berths, as there's no longer any service providing bedding. Breakfast also doesn't appear to be served ...
In the feed mill pelleting process, the high temperature and high humidity steam is introduced and the material is squeezed to generate a lot of heat, so that when the pellet feed comes out of the feed pelletizer machine, the water content reaches 16%-18%, and the temperature is as high...
(All energy types, including electricity, are measured by their capacity to generate heat. This is the approach used by the EIA, the IEA, and most researchers.) At the same time, the industrial production of the “Other than Advanced Economies” (including China, Russia, and Iran) has ...
Here is a breakdown of what that means: First, it refers to two types of natural gas.Most of it is the familiar “dry” gas, or gas that moves through pipelines to power plants to generate electricity or to homes for heating and cooking. ...
The oil and gas industry is one of the largest sectors in the world in terms of dollar value, generating an estimated $5 trillion in global revenue as of 2022.1Oil is crucial to the global economic framework, impacting everything from transportation to heating and electricity to industrial produ...
Production is measured in barrels for oil and cubic feet for natural gas, with reserves being important for company valuation. Integrated oil companies operate across all of these three segments and the largest producing countries are the United States, Saudi Arabia, and Russia.7 ...
