This book was released on 2020 with total page 114 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Water heating in residential buildings, also known as domestic hot water (DHW), is the third largest use of energy after appliances and space conditioning. About 90% of the residential buildings in the state use natural gas fueled water heaters, 6% use electricity, and a small percent use liquefied petroleum gas (LPG) or solar water heaters. The current energy use associated with residential water heating is small relative to the total amount of energy consumption in the residential building sector, but it is still a contributor of greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions. Improving hot water systems can be beneficial for bill customer savings, energy use, and water savings. Heat pump water heaters (HPWH) can function as grid batteries by using the water tank capability of thermal storage. The use of aggregated electrical DHW systems to store extra electricity during peak generation times or during low utility time of use (TOU) rates has the potential to alleviate some of the curtailed renewable energy power generation sources in the California grid while reducing carbon emissions and customer cost. Water heating technology was simulated using the Building Energy Modeling software California Building Energy for Code Compliance (CBECC-Res) and the California Simulation Engine (CSE). Different climate zones were explored to compare the electricity needed for a water heater operation given the same input parameters of water draw profiles and building envelope. The results show the feasibility of using HPWH and ERWH technology to participate in demand response management programs. The demand response capability of HPWH and ERWH show that they could be useful tools to accommodate surplus energy from solar generation during the solar peak hours. Whether the demand response is implemented using traditional HPWH or ERWH units, the capability of the technology to act on control signals is a necessary condition for a successful program.

Book excerpt: Goals in a Global Community: The Original Background Papers for Goals for Mankind: A Report to the Club of Rome expounds on the idea of a global community by analyzing the human predicament in terms of the diverse images of possibility that drive our differing national and social behaviors. More specifically, it asks whether humanity can create a global community with apparently conflicting, and yet so fundamentally similar, goals. This volume is comprised of 12 chapters and opens with a discussion on long-term trends and the evolution of complexity, suggesting that socioeconomic systems may be more effectively understood in light of dissipative systems. The following chapters explore the historical evolution of mankind's inner and outer dimensions; how to make sustainable economic growth a global possibility; the possibilities of changing motivation as well as finding motivation to change; and why social motives are the strongest driving forces behind change of goals for the global community. The book also proposes solar energy as a permanent clean source of abundant energy in a fully ordered and economically feasible global transition. The final section argues that the Club of Rome must continue to risk advocacy and recognize that human values are a fact of human existence. This monograph will be a useful resource for sociologists, social scientists, and psychologists.
