Essays on Energy Efficiency

The United States is currently dealing with a major issue with energy problem that is trying to find new sources of energy that is great for the environment, cost effective and long lasting. I think the answer to the energy problem is right beneath our feet, geothermal energy. Geothermal energy is the heat from beneath the earth. The core of the earth which is about 4000 miles which could reach up to 7,600 degrees Fahrenheit expand outward heating up the…...

Alternate Sources of Electricity: Wind PowerWind is created from an unequal heating of the earth's atmosphere therefore wind is an indirect form of solar energy. Convection currents, which occur due to the fact that warm air rises and cooler air drops, produces this cycle of air or wind. Some of the suns energy directly heats the air but mostly the heat is transferred from the earth into the atmosphere. Between 1-2% of the solar radiation that reaches the Earth is…...

 The case study I looked at was a study on the economic benefit of low-temperature geothermal energy in Italy's Marche region. The research was done to identify low cost, high efficiency potential areas for geothermal use. The scientists used GIS to show many different aspects through the entire article. They based their research on the use of GIS to show their data in an efficient, easy-to-read manner. Rather than using GIS in and of itself, they utilized other disciplines to…...

INTRODUCTIONUsually CSR and sustainability are used to signify the same thing but conceptually there are slight difference as CSR focus on triple bottom lines i.e. economic, social and environmental responsibility while sustainability emphasis to societal and environmental development. The purpose of establishing CSR into core business strategies is to bring stability for in long run and meeting the need of the society at minimal impact on environment. CSR is a vital component of sustainability or sustainable development that comprises corporate…...

 Theoretical LiteratureThere are theoretical and quite a number of empirical studies on residential household energy efficiency and consumption. Some theoretical analyses of household energy consumption are explained within the hypothesis identifies and uses income as a measure or determinant of household fuel utilization, alternative and switching performance (Heltberg, 2003). The theory espouses that there is a transition in energy efficiency for household needs from traditional biomass (i.e., grass, animal dung, firewood, charcoal, etc.) to modern sources (i.e., liquefied petroleum gas,…...

OrganizationThe topics before the UNIDO are “The role of ICT in Industrial Development” and “Promoting Sustainable Production and Consumption”. UNIDO is the specialized agency of the United Nations that promotes Industrial development for poverty reduction, inclusive globalization and sustainability of the environment. Therefore, Iraq is willing to adapt ICT into its industries and aims for sustainable production and consumption – in order to achieve the UN Sustainable Development Goals. I. The Role of ICT in Industrial DevelopmentIn order to achieve that,…...

AbstractToday, 54% of the world’s population lives in cities, a proportion that is expected to increase to 66% by 2050 (UN, 2014). These cities are constantly facing different impacts of climate change that not only cause significant economic losses but also pose challenges to urban living: 8 of the 10 most populous cities are vulnerable to earthquakes, and 6 of the 10 are at risk from floods, storm surges and tsunamis. In this context, Rwanda has initiated innovation and urban…...

AbstractIn Last few decades booming mobile market led us into a new era where some new types of technology emerge Mobile Cloud Computing (MCC) is one of them. This technology brings us to a whole new set of opportunities and challenges. In this paper, I am going to present overview of that how this works, what is its architecture and characteristics. And we will also explore that what could be the new area where we can go for deep research.…...

Energy is very important in people’s daily lives. Energy has been important in human society over the past years for the handling of a variety of problems with the environment. Therefore, energy has been used in transportation, agriculture, information technology, garbage collection, and human communication. Along with the rise in innovations since the world’s industrial revolution, energy use has also continued to grow. In this paper, I will discuss how coal came into existence and how human beings in different…...

The gap between energy supply and demand keeps increasing. This has resulted in search for alternate fuels as well as using the conventional fuels in the best efficient way. For the latter cause, increasing the energy efficiency by incorporating various systems is considered. Such systems use the unused energy that goes waste. One such energy in automobile engines are the exhaust gas heat energy. A lot of heat is thrown away by the engine through the exhaust gas and all…...

INTRODUCTIONWith the depleting energy resources, enhancing energy security and energy-access, particularly in emerging economies is one of the major challenges that one has to deal with. In addition to managing the existing energy resources, generating power effectively and intelligently is an equally important agenda. Supplementing the establishment of large power plants from conventional energy sources, there is also a need to focus on distributed small scale generation of power particularly from renewable energy sources. Although Distributed Energy Resources (DERs) need…...

ABSTRACTDue to demand for computer resource cloud based centers are expanding. Exponential growth of data centers has increased energy consumptions to an alarming rates. Impact on environment is proportional to high energy utilization in form of Carbon-dioxide emissions. To maximize various IT resources, cloud computing has produced an ultimate and interesting way to virtualize server and data centers to make it energy efficient .Green cloud computing refers to eco-friendly usage of computers and resource with respect to IT industry[2]. It…...

PCM Average Temperature Versus Discharging TimeAt the end of the charging process, the PCM is in the liquid phase at nearly 600C. The system was kept un-touched for 4 hours to store the energy. [9]The temperature was observed to get reduced to 540C at the starting of discharge process; this is due to the heat loss through insulation, as shown in Fig.4.3.\nDuring the discharge process, the cold HTF have passed through the heat exchanger to extract the energy from the…...

 1. Introduction1.1. BackgroundWater around the world is estimated around 70% of the earth, but 97.5% is salt water while 2.5% is freshwater water and potable, the access of clean water decrease day pay day due to increase of population, urbanization and Scio-economic(Facts, n.d.). Half of the world’s populations have water scarcity in each year (Mekonnen & Hoekstra, 2011). So there are different ways that classify the seawater and brackish water from salt in order to produce the clean water that…...

Energy is essential to life in the 21st century. Modern energy service play a key role in facilitating access to fundamental necessities such as clean water, sanitation and health care and advance development through the provision of reliable and efficient lighting, heating, cooking, mechanical power, transport and telecommunication services. Women of drudgery and to provide them more time to care for themselves and engage in activities that are more productive to them, thereby leading to empowerment and greater gender equality.This…...

Despite being small relative to other transportation methods, the aviation sector is a significant contributor in the realm of the global energy crisis. The number of airline passengers is steadily increasing each year, and relative to the industry’s growth, the amount of fossil fuels consumed, greenhouse gases emitted, and jet fuel prices are going up. Despite improvements in less polluting engines and other modernizations, air travel’s growth has still caused a net increase in pollution from aviation. Looking to the…...

The Gaillard Center, located in Charleston, South Carolina, is a multi- purpose municipal complex. The Gaillard project that was completed towards the end of 2015, was partly a renovation and partly a reconstruction. Working with the original, existing Gaillard structure, the team built a new center on its framework. The majority of the structure and the skin of the existing auditorium were left in place to preserve the history of the building. Due to the sheer size of this complex…...
