Energy policyDiscrete wavelet transformationThe dynamic evolution of the seasonal patterns in world oil consumption is dictated by complex interactions between regional consumers. Although this global pattern was stable and predictable in the past, recently it has undergone dramatic changes that have not ...
a, the economic environment influences the consumption patterns of millions of people. In the long term, it dramatically influences he lifestyle and well-being of entire nations. For example, in the nineteenth century, Britain was the wealthiest country in the world. A century later he standard...
Reducing the energy demand has become a key mechanism for limiting climate change, but there are practical limitations associated with large energy savings in a growing global economy and, importantly, its lower-income parts. Using new data on energy and GDP, we show that adopting the same near...
A major threat to the sustainability of tourism is the escalating demand for energy resulting in the depletion of natural resources and an associated threat to the global climate. It is argued that tourism, and particularly the recreational part of the product, may contribute considerably to a cou...
Pacific Northwest National Laboratory (PNNL) is conducting a project with a major hotel company to retrofit a full-service, large hotel with the goal of reducing energy consumption by at least 30%. The first step of the project was an intensive metering and monitoring effort aimed at ...
What do you think should be the top three energy resources? Explain. What general factors have contributed to many of the environmental problems facing our global society? How do each of these things (cars, cows, and chainsaws) contribute to...
Different scaling relations between electricity consumption and economical and social sectors found in southern Spain region of Andaluca, indicate variability in these sectors' basal energy consumption processes. The usefulness of these findings for urban modeling is finally outlined and some practical ...
The analysis of consumption patterns showed that 43% of households with cooling included in their bills had the global peak demand at midnight during weekdays and weekends in summer. However, the global peak demand for cooling-excluded households occurs from 7:00 to 10:00 pm on weekdays and, ...
