Download or read book Sustainable Energy Transitions in Canada written by Mark Winfield and published by UBC Press. This book was released on 2023-11-15 with total page 420 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Canadian energy systems need to evolve. Beyond providing essential energy services, they must respond to climate change, enhance social justice, and remain sensitive to local cultures and traditions. Can they do this and still make financial sense? Sustainable Energy Transitions in Canada gathers experts from across the country to share perspectives on leading theories and practices. Contributors first deal with the conceptual aspects of energy transitions, investigating such topics as energy justice and poverty, the decolonization of energy, community energy planning, the role of energy systems modelling, and links between energy and climate change policy. Building on this foundation, they offer case studies that cover the North, the Atlantic region, Quebec, Ontario, Alberta and British Columbia, along with crucial but difficult to decarbonize sectors like transportation and space heating. Running throughout this comprehensive discussion is a common thread: the importance of paying attention to wider sustainability goals and distributional justice in the process of decarbonizing the Canadian economy.

Book excerpt: Canada's energy use is rising. Urban areas are a major source of Canada's greenhouse gas emissions. To reach the federal government's 2020 target of reducing national emissions by 20% from 2006 levels, addressing energy use and emissions in urban areas and communities must be part of the solution. Preliminary results of a study commissioned by QUEST on the potential energy savings and GHG emissions reduction of urban integrated energy systems are promising and indicate that significant reductions would be possible through stringent land use policies, and that these policies would enable implementation of several technologies and further reductions.

Download or read book Shale gas written by Great Britain. Parliament. House of Commons. Energy and Climate Change Committee and published by The Stationery Office. This book was released on 2011-05-23 with total page 184 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This report examines the impact shale gas drilling in the UK could have on water supplies, energy security and greenhouse gas emissions. The inquiry found no evidence that the hydraulic fracturing process involved in shale gas extraction - known as 'fracking' - poses a direct risk to underground water aquifers provided the drilling well is constructed properly. The MPs, nevertheless, urge the Department of Energy and Climate Change (DECC) to monitor drilling activity extremely closely in its early stages in order to assess its impact on air and water quality. Shale gas extraction could reduce the UK's dependence on imported gas, but it is unlikely to have a dramatic effect on domestic gas prices. The UK's onshore and, particularly, offshore shale gas resources could be substantial and the development of the offshore shale gas industry in the UK should be encouraged. Greenhouse gas emissions from gas are lower than from coal, but are still much higher than many low-carbon technologies. The presence of methane in shale gas, a greenhouse gas far more potent than carbon dioxide, has raised concerns. However, methane would only be released through leaks from the well or pipelines and the MPs are confident that this can be easily minimised through regulation and enforcement. Shale gas could reduce carbon dioxide emissions globally by encouraging a switch from coal to gas for electricity generation, but it will not be sufficient to meet long term emissions reductions targets and avoid the worst effects of global climate disruption.
Download or read book Energy Wind written by Donald Marples and published by The Capitol Net Inc. This book was released on 2010-05-11 with total page 813 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Since early recorded history, people have been harnessing the energy of the wind. In the United States in the late 19th century, settlers began using windmills to pump water for farms and ranches, and later, to generate electricity for homes and industry. Industrialism led to a gradual decline in the use of windmills. The steam engine replaced European water-pumping windmills, and in the 1930s, the Rural Electrification Administration's programs brought inexpensive electric power to most rural areas in the United States. However, industrialization also sparked the development of larger windmills, wind turbines, to generate electricity.
Download or read book The Renewable Energy Transition written by John Erik Meyer and published by Springer Nature. This book was released on 2019-10-18 with total page 386 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Canada is a well-endowed country that serves as an ideal model to lead the reader through the development of energy, resources, and society historically and into a post-carbon future. The book provides an historical perspective and describes the physical resource limitations, energy budgets, and climate realities that will determine the potential for any transition to renewable energy. Political and social realities, including jurisdiction and energy equality issues, are addressed. However, we cannot simply mandate or legislate policies according to social and political aspirations. Policies must comply with the realities of physical laws, such as the energy return on investment (EROI) for fossil-fuel based and renewable energy systems. EROI is discussed in both historical terms and in reference to the greater efficiencies inherent in a distributed generation, mainly electric, post-carbon society. Meyer explores the often misleading concepts and terms that have become embedded in society and tend to dictate our policy making, as well as the language, social and personal goals, and metrics that need to change before the physical transition can begin at the required scale. This book also reviews what nations have been doing thus far in terms of renewables, including the successes and failures in Canada and across the globe. Ontario’s green energy fiasco, and a comparison of the different circumstances of Norway and Alberta, for example, are covered as part of the author’s comparison of a wide range of countries. What are the achievements, plans, and problems that determine how well different countries are positioned to make “the transition”? The transition path is complex, and the tools we need to develop and the physical infrastructure investments we need to make, are daunting. At some point in time, Canada and Canadians, like all nations, will be living on 100% renewable energy. Whether the social and technological level that endures sees us travelling to the stars, or subsisting at a standard of living more similar to the pre-fossil fuel era, is far from certain.

Book excerpt: The Acts of Creation is a workbook that illustrates the tools and activities for expanding the intuitive, psychic, and spiritual senses, utilizing hands-on projects. While primarily designed to be used by adults who work and/or live with children, it can also be utilized by anyone who wishes to expand their metaphysical/scientific awareness. This publication synthesizes contemporary and historical knowledge and my personal experiences in the areas of metaphysics, quantum physics, parapsychology and radionics. Bridging metaphysics and science together is a main consideration of this publication developing into a concept I call Spiritual Sciences. This book includes experts in fields of parapsychology, quantum physics, psychology and metaphysics and their research that is utilized to bring unfamiliar knowledge to the forefront. Included is new information on zero-point energy technology and the Indigo children. As you become more involved in the processes in this workbook, you learn to create a stronger connection with the super conscious self. In turn, this workbook clarifies the relationship between the individual personality and the sacred enlightened self, the Over-Soul. This connection will expand your awareness of other intelligent life in the universe. As a learning specialist, I bring to this publication a professional and practical viewpoint to the parameters of Affective education. This methodology addresses the developmental levels of children creating a curriculum that expresses creativity, exploration and the spark that ignites new experiences, accelerating consciousness to the next level of awareness. The intuitive processes learned from this workbook will assist individuals in providing a clearer understanding of the subtle mechanics of the intuitive, psychic and spiritual senses. This knowledge will make the understanding of one’s life goals more insightful, personal abilities stronger and spiritual dynamics clearer. **************************************************************** * ORDER FORM * * Name ____________________ E-mail ___________________ * * City _______________ State Zip __________ * * Phone: 925)930-1497 Don Ellison 1515 Geary Rd.
